Sanyo releases information on two new Gorilla GPSs

The Japanese based Sanyo has recently introduced two new in-dash navigation systems that look to lead the Gorilla GPS lineup. The two GPS models include the NVA-GS1609FT and the NVA-GS1409DT, both of which feature similar specs, but the main difference is the fact that the NVA-GS1609 boasts 16GB of storage, while the other features only 8GB of storage.

In terms of screen size, both GPSs sport 7-inch LCD touch screens, with 480×240 resolution. For the 16GB device, half of its SSD hard drive will specifically hold maps and other navigation information, while the other 8GB allow it to store ripped CD music as well as play DVDs. In addition, AAC, WMA, and MP3 file formats are supported, and it even comes with a 1Seg B-CAS tuner.

Now, when driving, it is important to know the traffic conditions. The tuner allows the driver to watch live video broadcasts which can help keep the driver updated on local and distant road conditions. Not to mention the ability to watch a few shows during down time.
