MMP501 widescreen GPS navigation systems in Australia.
MMP501 features a 5" anti glare display, AV IN connectivity to make use of the screen, for ex. watching DVD's, Bluetooth hands free, SiRF Star III GPS receiver, 2500mAh battery (we don't know how long it will work). The device costs appriximately $840.
MMP401's specs are almost the same, except that it has a 4" screen, the battery of only 900mAh capacity, and no Bluetooth. The price for this one is around $540.
