Garmin StreetPilot 7500 In addition to the new StreetPilot 7200, Garmin has also announced the new StreetPilot 7500. The 7500 is very much the same as the 7200 GPS device - offering a huge 7 inch color touch screen display and a device catered towards large vehicles such as RV's and Semis.

Using XM Satellite Radio, the 7500 is also capable of delivering real time traffic information to the user. Having XM Satellite Radio means you have access to 150+ channels of commercial free music, sports, news, and talk shows. Just like the 7200, you can also load MP3 files onto an SD card and play the music back on the 7500.

The key difference with the 7500 vs the 7200, is the 7500's inclusion of dead reckoning sensors. These sensors allow the 7500 to track a vehicles' course even when your GPS signals are blocked in urban areas or inside a tunnel.
