The new Nissan Cube will be unveiled the morning of November 19 at the Los Angeles Automobiles Show, and the automaker has begun the buildup to its arrival. The Cube now has an official website, where you can count down the days and see more on the Cube art cars that design students prepared for the '08 New York Auto Show, among other things. Nissan's covering all the bases, also getting the

  Chris Theodore, Ford's former head of North American product development and the man who brought us the Ford GT, stopped by this morning to chat with editor-in-chief Jean Jennings and to tell us more about one of his current projects as vice chairman and chief technical officer of Saleen.   That would be the mid-engine Saleen S5S Raptor supercar concept that debuted at this year's New

  Coincidence is a funny beast, is it not? On the very same day, releases have been put out touching on both of the major navigation deals that have long since been pending. To kick things off, we've got TomTom and Tele Atlas in quite the celebratory mood, as TomTom intends for Tele Atlas' listing on Euronext Amsterdam and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange "to be terminated as soon as legally

  That sound you hear is the not-yet-released nüvifone trembling in fear, as TomTom has just announced that an iPhone-ready version of its famed navigation software is practically ready to rock 'n roll. More specifically, a TomTom spokesman was quoted as saying that its "navigation system runs on the iPhone already," and he made the statement hot on the heels of the iPhone 3G announcement.

  Everyone remembers the terrible stories on the news a few years ago, of climbers and hikers lost in the wilderness and the desperate search to find them before the unthinkable happened. If you love the outdoors, a situation like that could be your worst nightmare.   A number of products have appeared to help you survive the elements should you wind up in a bad position.

  There's a new little toy I've started throwing in my camera bag--a GPS receiver. It's not what you're thinking. There are no movings maps. In fact, there's no readout at all. This GPS receiver, smaller than a pack of Tic Tacs, doesn't tell me where to go; it shows where I've been. I'll explain how that enters into photography in a second.   I found the i-gotU (among the worst named

  The war for the low end of the GPS market promises to be a bloody one, and it looks like TomTom's suffered the first major injury: quarterly profits at the device maker dropped 83 percent from last year, and the company says it's due to competitive price cuts.   TomTom made a net profit of just €7.3M ($11.4M) this quarter compared to €44M ($66.2M) in the year-ago quarter, results which

    As before, the TomTom ONE 130 (pictured above) occupies the low end with a 3.5-inch display, though it sports a redesigned and slimmer body this time around, along with a companion model in the form of the ONE 130S, which adds text-to-speech functionality.   Look for the whole lot to be available next month, with the ONE 130 setting you back $200, the ONE 130S and XL 330 each running

    The fine folks at GPS review have gotten their hands on the new TomTom GO 930, a followup to the GO 720 -- TomTom's previous flagship device. As far as looks go, the 930 is pretty much a 720 in shiny black clothing, so the review concentrates on the new features included like Active Lane Guidance, static intersection images and IQ routes.

And you thinking puttering around the intarwebz on your EDGE-capable iPhone was bad -- just think of trying to find anything on the 'net while inadvertently moseying through a dodgy part of town. Nevertheless, BMW is gearing up to offer "unrestricted access" to the web as an alternative in any new 2008 vehicle, but alas, it's only for European clients at the moment.

  It shares many of the features of its more expensive sibling, the $399.95 Digiwalker C520, but the C320 is not upgradeable to live traffic and lacks the C520's text-to-speech capabilities. The C320, available exclusively at Radio Shack, features a 4.3-inch touch screen, pre-loaded maps of the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) on the built-in 1GB of memory, and a 1.7 million

  Delphi's latest portable GPS device, the Nav300, has the usual satellite navigation abilities, and also packs in ZAGAT ratings, voice command control, Bluetooth connectivity, Text-To-Speech for street names, speed limit warnings, and a host of other features. When not on the road, the Nav300 doubles as a media player, handling music and movies via an SD card, and the device also includes

  Nowadays it seems like everyone has a GPS unit, but Navigon's new 5100 will have a leg up on the competition when it debuts later this month 'cause it'll offer real-time traffic updates at no extra charge (unlike most GPS units which require a subscription for the service). The unit will be out later this month. On top of that, the inch-thick 5100 will also have the brains to recommend

  The system would rely on a camera (mounted on the front of your car) to provide the live imagery to your GPS' display. Using image recognition technology, the unit would then pick out landmarks and sync it with the directions from your GPS. The new units will guide you using real-world images rather than 3D maps. The guys at Electronista have unearthed details on TomTom's next generation

  That bulge you see contains a helix GPS antenna and some features inside the unit include a SiRF Star III GPS chip (with GPS tracking using up to four satellites), a 3D motion detector, a decently large 1,200 mAH Li-ion battery and a standard mini-USB connection for charging and connection purposes. If so, dig this: Germany's Falcom Mambo II is a quad-band GSM worldphone with GPRS that

  This simple cigarette adapter plug-in reportedly "knocks out GPS logging or GPS tracking systems that may be operating in your vehicle," and considering that it sports a two-to-four meter operating range, just about every automobile outside of an 18-wheeler (or limousine) should be covered.

  Based on Windows CE 4.2, the Map-Star packs a Samsung 400MHz S3C2440 processor, along with a 4.3-inch touchscreen display, SiRF Star III GPS chipset, the usual audio and video playback support, and a 2GB SD card pre-loaded with maps of the US and Canada (and 1.65 million POIs).

  Furthermore, the watch can be connected via USB to double as a GPS receiver for laptops and other mapping applications, and it's pre-programmed to record the user's route by marking and saving tracking points as you go. Although details are a bit scarce, the black timepiece houses a SiRF Star III GPS antenna, supports WAAS / EGNOS, and offers up tracking, positioning, and time alert

  The GPS-510 ups things a bit with real-time traffic info, additional video options, and support for SDHC cards, while the GPS 810 tops things off with a wireless rotary controller (seen above), an FM transmitter, and built-in Bluetooth for hands-free calling. Those include the low-end GPS-310 model (a follow-up to the GPS-300), the slightly more capable GPS-510, and the top-end GPS-810.
