NAVIGON 2200/2210: premium quality for first-time buyers

Hamburg (ots) - For demanding sat nav novices who want outstanding
design and the latest functionalities without losing sight of the
cost, the NAVIGON 2200/2210 series is just the thing. The new NAVIGON
2200 is available from 149 euros.

Hamburg, 29th August 2008 - It looks elegant and is barely larger
than the palm of your hand - but it covers nearly all of Europe. No
doubt about it: when it comes to route planning, the little NAVIGON
2210 is a pretty big deal. Thanks to new software technology, routes
between Paris, London or Berlin are calculated more quickly, and
Text-to-Speech ensures even greater precision of navigation
announcements. New functionalities such as Emergency Help round off
the repertoire of the NAVIGON 2200/2210.

"A selection of our best navigation functionalities, encased in
high-quality design: perfection down to the smallest detail is what
makes our new pilot stand out", says Jörn Watzke, Vice President
Product Line Management at NAVIGON. Framed by a chrome ring, the
NAVIGON 2200/2210 shines thanks to its elegantly polished surface and
its brilliant 3.5-inch display. The TMC antenna is cleverly
integrated into the car charger cable, helping your NAVIGON co-pilot
guide you around every traffic jam. To make sure you're always on the
right track when your way is clear, NAVIGON has integrated Lane
Assistant Pro and Reality View Pro into its new companion. At
multi-lane crossroads in urban areas or at complex motorway exits and
junctions, the NAVIGON 2210 indicates the perfect lane well in
advance, ensuring that you reach your destination easily and safely.
The usefulness of the new Emergency Help is not limited to
exceptional circumstances: whether you're looking for a hospital, a
police station or the nearest garage or pharmacy, you can chose to
additionally display the contact data of the selected destination,
such as its address and telephone numbers, and be guided there
directly at the touch of a single button. Technically, a 375 MHz
processor gets the NAVIGON 2200/2210 going, and with 512 MB ROM / 2
GB ROM and 64 MB RAM, it swiftly calculates even the most complex
routes. The NAVIGON Fresh online service allows you to upgrade the
NAVIGON 2200/2210 with additional, state-of-the-art extras. Along
with regular software updates, the service also provides the latest
speed trap information for the whole of Europe. NAVIGON FreshMaps
even lets you bring your sat nav up to date every three months with
current maps of Europe supplied by map specialists Navteq. The price
of a 24-month subscription: 99 euros. To ensure that you always have
enough room for all additional services, you can easily extend the
memory of the device later on by means of a Micro SD card.

The NAVIGON 2210 costs 179 euros in the Europe version with road
maps of 40 countries, while the 2200 version for Germany, Austria and
Switzerland is available for just 149 euros. For more information on
