 ProNav_PNN_300 in the Box Courtesy of the folks at audion-mm.com we are roadtesting the ProNav PND.
This SatNav is specifically aimed at the professional truckies or anyone driving an oversized vehicle where it is important to know which roads, bridges and tunnels you can safely negotiate with your rig. And, just as important, you need to know where all the truck stops are.
So how does the ProNav PNN-300, which comes in at a hefty AUD 799, fare in the heavyweight league?
Let's belt up and find out.

 Qstarz Explore 2000
Gadget testing like trying out wireless broadband gadgets and gps technology generally involves a bit of tethering to a location, but with the Qstarz Explore 2000 I have a licence to roam. The QStarz Explore 2000 is a GPS enabled sports recorder designed to record, manage and analyse your sporting movements in the great outdoors. Thanks to Qstarz, DigitalReviews is heading for the great outdoors ... risking life and limb in the depths of a cold Melbourne winter, the "swine-flu capital of Australia"

 Qref All of today's high tech equipment comes with a user manual and the more complicated a piece of equipment is the thicker the manual. And the fewer people that will actually read that… As a result most people will not know how to properly work with their equipment -- even if their lives depended on it.
And when it comes, for instance, to vital navigational equipment in an aircraft lack of knowledge can be fatal!
Today we are looking at a reference manual that addresses this problem.
Enter Qref, a company that specializes in making high quality reference material for the aviation and maritime sectors.
Today we will look at the Quick Reference for the Garmin GNS 430, arguably the most popular avionics set.

 GTop SC-200 When I heard that I had the opportunity to review this small marvel of electronics, I wondered what would be the use to me. I have to go back a long time to explain my feelings to you on the subject of speed limits... and of course keeping within those limits. It's now some thirty five years ago, that I was trained to become a civil engineer. We had many lectures on road design, and it's like yesterday to me listening to one of the lecturers admonishing us: "When you drive keep within the speed limits: roads are designed to a specific maximum speed. It's for your own safety to stay within those limits!"
That stern warning has been in the back of my mind ever since, so I keep to speed limits. So why would I need an instrument that warns me of speed cameras? It's with a bit of scepticism I plugged it into the cigarette lighter, and took the GlobalTop SC-200 for a road test.
In this review I'll give you a first hand witness account of how I changed my mind, once I had the experience of going through an hour of heavy rush hour traffic in the city of the Hague, in the western part of the Netherlands.

The Qstarz Super 99 Bluetooth Solar GPS Travel Recorder, or BT-Q1200 for short, is a Bluetooth GPS but with couple of important differences:
* it has built in solar power cells
* it is a stand alone travel recorder that can log up to 200,0000 records. You can use the provided software to geotag photos using the GPS tracks recorded by the unit
* it uses a new generation GPS chip – MTK GPS

 Leadertone GPS6000
Leadertone is not a name you’d see often in the Western world. But their products may be familiar even though they can be unbranded.
Such is the case with the Personal Navigation Device that is suction-cupped to my windshield at the moment. It’s a smart-looking compact PND simply labelled GPS.
Only the box gives it the honorific: Pocket Chauffeur. This is not to be confused with the Pocket Chauffeur you’ll find on Acer’s N35.
Techrific Australia supplied the unit which is priced at AUD399.
We are quite impressed with this handy all-in-one device and here are the reasons why.
