Vision Tech America revealed a GPS navigation system called VTN4301. It has a wide 4.3″ screen with anti-glare coating, and preloaded maps of entire USA and Canada.

It comes with non-replaceable rechargeable 1100mAh Li-Ion battery but we’re not sure how long that would last with a screen this size - even though they claim it would last 4.5 hours.

The GPS receiver is from SiRF which can track upto 20 satellites at once, the maps are from Navteq and the software is from Horizon Nav.

Other features include bluetooth connectivity, SD/MMC slot, and text-to-speech which easily makes this gps navigation system a decent mid-level device.

There is more however such as MP3 support, Picture, and WMV viewer. It does support other languages but some of them may not have text-to-speech configured. Also you get a trip book for multi destination routes and a My POI feature to mark your own favorite locations.

Not sure when this will be available or for how much but we’ll be sure to keep you updated.
