Asus enters the GPS navigation system fray by releasing the R300 and R700 systems. While both share plenty of similarities aesthetically, the R300 has a smaller display compared to the R700’s 4.3″ screen. Shared features include an integrated GPS navigation system, media player functions, and support for AAC, MP3, WMA, and MPEG 4 file formats. On the memory front, you get 64MB RAM, 128MB ROM, and a microSD memory card slot for expansion options, all powered by a 400MHz Samsung processor. Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity allows you to retrieve SMS messages, while a RDS-TMC receiver displays traffic data in GPS mode to let you arrive at your destination soonest possible. The R300, however, misses out on this capability. Both the R300 and R700 will be available in Europe this November at a yet undisclosed price.
