Blackbird PMD-B100

No one ever said that being lost can't be entertaining at the same time. Since I wasn't at the CES, I didn't get to witness this unique device.

Alpine Electronics' 16-channel Blackbird PMD-B100 GPS weighs 8 oz and comes with a 3.6-inch LCD, built-in antenna, 6 million pre-loaded U.S. & Canadian maps, a stereo headphone jack, and mounting cradle.

The coolest thing about the Blackbird is that while you're looking up directions, you can listen to music, either through its FM modulator or your downloaded MP3s and WMAs.


It won't be available until February for $750, but in the meantime, you can look up authorized Alpine dealers near you.

For a 3D tour, accessories, and more on the Blackbird PMD-B100, check out www.blackbirdnav.com.

I saw it online somewhere and have never seen it again. Of course, it's not in any store. One unit with both GPS and satellite radio. One parking space on my dashboard. Seems pretty simple to me.
