Hamburg, 4 March 2008 - Optimum clarity thanks to the new Lane Assistant Pro and the enhanced Reality View Pro. New software technology provides even faster route calculation and quicker response times, with an integrated MP3 player, picture viewer and FM transmitter providing the best in multimedia connection. There is no doubt: NAVIGON 8110 will be setting new standards at CeBIT 2008 as far as route planning is concerned. A new highlight with the NAVIGON navigator: for the first time ever, Panorama View3D provides a three-dimensional display of the entire route. This will guarantee a completely new driving experience.

"Our new navigator shows what today's navigation equipment is capable of: technology and design in perfection", explains Peter Scheufen, Chairman of NAVIGON AG. In its frame of brushed stainless steel and perfectly mounted in its new active holder, the NAVIGON 8110 cuts a dash. End of February 2008 it was already awarded with an "honourable mention" of the international red dot design award.

The software is at the heart of NAVIGON's smart navigator, significantly improving navigation options: Panorama View3D continually displays a three-dimensional road layout whilst you are driving. This means that mountains and valleys en route are displayed as they appear in real life, and bridges and tunnels are displayed on the road layout. Reality View Pro now provides an even more realistic display of awkward motorway junctions and the correct exits. The new Lane Assistant Pro even provides a view of the road beyond the junction, as well as showing the correct lane to take at the junction itself. Jörn Watzke, Vice President for Product Line Management at NAVIGON, sums it up by saying "it ensures better orientation and consequently improves safety".

The latest generation of Bluetooth hands-free kit is especially practical, providing easier and faster connection to mobile telephones. A command can be given to move numbers from the phone book into the navigator's memory. The integrated USB port can be used to copy address information from MS Outlook straight into the navigator's list of favourites. Text-to-Speech function, precise Voice Recognition Pro and clear menu structure all ensure the navigator is simple and safe to use. Once you say the name of the town and street, the NAVIGON 8110 will take care of everything from there. There is an option to change your destination as soon as you have said it. The town, street and house number can be changed with a single request. So you only need to touch the screen once to plan your entire route. Voice Recognition Pro does the rest: route planning has never been so easy.

The NAVIGON 8110 contains a 533 MHz processor with 512 MB ROM and 128 MB RAM as well as a separate graphics accelerator, enabling the latest navigation functions to be displayed quickly on the 4.8-inch screen. The antenna for receiving traffic congestion information is fully integrated in the charging cable. The 8110 is the only navigator in the NAVIGON range with access to the latest, fastest and most accurate traffic information service on the market: TMC Pro. All this at no extra cost. The navigator also comes with extensive multimedia provision: photos stored on SD cards can be displayed on the brilliant 16:9 screen, either individually or as a slide show. The NAVIGON 8110 also has full MP3 player functionality. You can choose to listen to music through the built-in loudspeakers, headphones or radio sets. The FM Radio Transmitter transmits all audio signals in the best possible sound quality - including the precise navigation announcements.

Lane Assistant, PIN code protection (protection against theft) and a POI memory containing more than 2 million destinations complete the all-inclusive navigation package. The price for this fantastic travel companion: 449 Euro - including a map of Europe that covers 38 countries. During the first 24 months after purchase the device can be kept up to date with latest maps free of charge by the new service NAVIGON FreshMaps. An update will be provided every three months.
NAVIGON 8110 will be available end of April 2008.
