Linux Devices writes about the Sony ‘Navi’ in-car navigation systems, the NV-XYZ 33, 55, and 77, and while they say Sony ‘introduced’ them yesterday, we talked about them (and linked to the Sony website) at least a couple of months ago, so maybe they just mean they launched. Either way, they have a decent write-up about them, including lots of screenshots of the tasty 3D navigation system that renders a videogame-like projection of the areas in front of you (or anywhere else, one would think). I would love for them to launch a version with New York data. It took me about 2.5 hours to get from Queens to Brooklyn the other day, and if you aren’t from New York, let me just say that’s about 2.0 hours too long. I did learn a lot about how toll bridges work, which was nice. (Thanks, Mr. Wiggins!)
