QSTARZ, whose products we have featured many times on this site, today introduced the GPS Sports Recorder-Explore 2000. With the Explore 2000, you can see the current GPS coordinates quite easily easily on the big screen as well as many other statistics important in sports, such as speeds, timers,etc.
You will be able to manage and analyse various sports activities, such as cycling, jogging, sailing, and skiing with the bundled Qsports software. Google Map visualisation is also integrated.
The Explore 2000 is available in 4MB memory for 260,000 waypoints and 20 hours operation time for a suggested price of USD139 on November 14, 2008.
DigitalReviews.net will be putting one of these units to the test shortly and we have great expectations of its capabilities.

For almost as long as I can remember in Australia there has been a law against using "handheld battery operated devices" whilst driving. Whilst I have not fallen foul to this particular law, I have known a few who have. Seriously for the value of the fine and demerit points, getting some sort of hands free solution would be a far cheaper long term proposition not to mention general road safety. The Jabra SP700 Bluetooth Car Kit is an interesting and attractive alternative to the many bluetooth headset solutions in the market. With thanks to the ever helpful and generous Jabra team, DigitalReviews Network assesses how this gadget fares in the daily grind of this road warrior. |

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.
