...launching a navigation product in the US, Sony decided to be conservative, pouring its resources into making a product that works well, looks good, and is easy to use. There is no realtime traffic feature, nor is there an MP3 player, or the infrared or Bluetooth connectivity found in other products. It?s just a compact dashboard device with a full map of the US, ready to give you turn by turn instructions...
...emergence of new full-featured ready-to-drive portable navigation devices is good news for consumers.

Weighing just 60 grams, the Thump 2 is a pair of shades with a difference: it features a built-in MP3 player with enough capacity for about 240 songs. Style-wise, the latest Thump is a sleeker version of its predecessor: it takes inspiration from Oakley's Gascan range of sunglasses, and features a graphics-free, black iridium finish that will look as good on the street as it does on the ski slope...
