The electronics manufacturer is now shipping the LN740, LN735 and LN730 portable GPS receivers.
LG first introduced its Portable Navigator line, consisting of the LN740, LN735 and LN730 GPS receivers, back at CES 2007, and they are all now available at Circuit City and other major electronic retailers. The higher-end device is the LN740, which features a 4-inch display, access to traffic information, a day and a night mode for clear viewing in varying light, turn-by-turn navigation and preloaded maps of the U.S. and Canada. The LN740 also includes a points-of-interest database with restaurants and hotels. The GPS navigator will also play music files and display photos.
LG's mid-range receiver, the LN735, has a slightly smaller display at 3.5 inches. Like the LN740, the LN735 includes preloaded maps of the U.S. and Canada, and offers turn-by-turn directions and a points-of-interest database. The LN735 also includes both 2D and 3D map formats, and can display photos and play music through its speaker output.
The last GPS unit in the line is the LN730, which is also the entry-level model. Like its big brothers, the LN730 includes maps of the States and our neighbors to the north, along with a points-of-interest database and music and image playback functions. The LN730 sports a 3.5-inch screen, which can display 2D and 3D maps in either day or night modes. However, the navigator seems to lack spoken directions.
The LG LN740, LN735 and LN730 are available immediately and cost $450, $350 and $300, respectively.
