Who Buys The Sony® ™ Portable Navigation System
The Sony NV-U70 is ideal for people who travel on business and rent cars, it's ideal for families splitting time between multiple vehicles, it's ideal for anyone who is new to a particular city or town, and it's great for those who want technology but don't want the complications of bulky electronics to move around from place to place or the limitations of an "installed" navigation system. People who are looking for an easy way to experience the benefits of satellite navigation where ever (and in whatever) they are driving will appreciate the lightweight, easy to use Sony NV-U70.
Q: I'm concerned about the unit being securely placed while the vehicle is moving. What type of mounting system is supplied?
A: The Sony NV-U70 comes with a car docking cradle that allows the unit to be attached to the windshield or dashboard with a simple suction cup and then dock in place for a secure fit. The dock also has a connection for the cigarette lighter power adapter so there aren't a lot of messy wires to unplug when it's time to move the unit to another vehicle.
It's Portable!
The small size of the Sony means that the user can pack this in a brief case, purse, or back pack with no problem whatsoever. At just 11 ounces, it's not much more effort to carry along than a PDA or an MP3 player!
