QStarz eXtreme: "World's Most Powerful GPS Receiver"

QStarz has just announced the BT-Q818 eXtreme—the self-proclaimed world's most powerful Bluetooth GPS receiver. The 51-channel chipset and 32 hours of use time are impressive, but it's the adjustable update rate that's their claim to fame. The user can choose between 1 and 5Hz updates, with each Hz good for one update per second. In other words, the QStarz eXtreme can sync your position an impressive five times a second, which should be more than enough to placate the most dedicated of car racers and anvil droppers. No word on price or release date at this time. [product via Navigadget]

Qstarz BT-Q920 Hand-Held GPS Receiver and MP3 Transmitter

Combine a GPS receiver with an FM radio transmitter for your MP3s and what do you get? As of now, you get the Qstarz BT-Q920. We probably wouldn't care as much if it weren't as small as it is, somewhere around two square inches (or 2.1 x 1.7 x 0.8 inches to be exact). That puts it in the same ballpark as the Mio DigiWalker that we looked at earlier. Its battery should be good to go for around 12 hours of use. More »

Latest by lookatmewhenimtalkingtoyou: I'll ignore the fact that this is a 3-dimensional object...isn't this more like 3.5 square inches? 2 square inches would be closer to 1.4 x 1.4 I think you mean 2 inches squared? more »
