Looking for a new GPS unit? How about one of the two new Nextar creations? The SNAP 5 and the SNAP 7 are the devices I am talking about. The SNAP 5 has a 5-inch touchscreen while the 7 has a 7-inch touchscreen. Nothing unexpected so far, but it’s quite an upgrade from the SNAP 3 version! Both devices are just 0.7 inch thick and they will get you stereo speakers. text-to-speech support, Tele Atlas maps, an SD card slot, MP3 player functionality, 2D/3D viewing modes, a rechargeable Li-ion battery and a magnetic docking station.

Both devices will arrive at the SEMA 2008 in November but they will arrive in stores only next Spring. Prices you ask? $299.99 or $349.99, depending on which one you’ll pick!
