Sony has released a new model in its Linux-based XYZ series, with touchscreen units that can display most of the streets of Tokyo in real-time 3D. The NVXYZ777 can also be mated to an optional ‘EX’ box that fits in the in-dash DIN slot, storing a 30GB hard drive that can hold map data, as well as music (and at Gizmodo, they’re pretty sure also video, since it is MPEG1/2 compatible). Market pricing is to be set less than € 2000. To synchronize the files, you have to use SonicStage 3.1. You also get a 6.5″ WVGA touch screen with a resolution of 800×480.
