FCC Approves ViaMichelin Navigation X-970 GPS

Posted by Martin on September 13th, 2007  Print This Post


The ViaMichelin Navigation X-970 mobile GPS device has been approved by the FCC, allowing it to go on sale in the US and elsewhere. The Navigation X-970 has a claimed battery life of about 3 hours and features a hands-free functionality for making calls from your mobile phone which can further reduce the battery life. The device features

a touch-screen interface and comes with a cigarette lighter charging cable. The provided SD card comes with maps of the USA and Canada.

Equipped with an SiRF Star III type GPS chip, you can enter your destination for finding the directions or use it in free-flow mode where it simply displays your current position on a map. There’s also a My ViaMichelin function that allows you to transfer your favorite addresses, routes and POIs from www.ViaMichelin.com onto your X-970.

Packaging includes a USB cable, ViaMichelin Navigation DVD, two car-mounting systems (windshield or dashboard use) and a manual. No info on the pricing yet.
