- Goodbye backseat drivers, Hello Mobile Navigation; innovative T805/T815
navigation system brings precise GPS directions to mobile users
3GSM World Congress 2007 -- Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT), a global leader
in wireless communications, today announced its new Phone-based Navigation
System T805 and Smartphone-based Navigation System T815, both featuring
Motorola's new MOTONAV solution.
The T805 and T815 Navigation Systems with MOTONAV easily turn compatible
Bluetooth(R) enabled handsets into ultra-portable GPS navigation devices.
Each navigation system includes a
stylish Motorola designed GPS receiver,
which provides precise locations, turn-by-turn directions, on-screen maps and
clear spoken and visual instructions. The systems also boast a rich set of
location-based services through MOTONAV.
The GPS receiver establishes a connection via Bluetooth wireless
technology to a compatible mobile phone through automatic pairing,
eliminating the need for complicated device discovery or pin-number entry.
The receiver is enhanced by AGPS, providing users with quick start-up and
location search and routing within seconds.
The MOTONAV location-based services help users to navigate to any
destination including restaurants, petrol stations, schools and hotels. Users
can also send their whereabouts to friends, family and colleagues, who can
then view the location on a map or navigate to their location. Real-time
traffic updates help drivers avoid potential congestion.
"Motorola is breaking new ground with our sophisticated new Bluetooth
navigation solutions," said Ron Garriques, president of Motorola Mobile
Devices. "Our T805 and T815 navigation systems, with the power of MOTONAV,
deliver information when and where you absolutely need it most."
The compact GPS receiver fits easily in the user's pocket and comes
complete with a car charger, universal phone holder and flexible mounting
options. The T805 version comes with a 12-month MOTONAV national
subscription, while the T815 includes MOTONAV loaded on a memory card.
