Plenio set to release VXA-5000, VXA-4300 GPS / PMP units
There doesn't appear to have been much in the way of an official announcement, but it looks like Plenio's VXA-5000 GPS/PMP unit is rapidly heading stateside, recently passing through the FCC and already finding its way to "in stock soon" status on Amazon. While there isn't a whole lot to distinguish it from the vast array of other GPS/PMP combos out there, the device certainly looks to be decent enough in and of itself, with a 4.3-inch widescreen display, built-in Bluetooth, an FM transmitter, the usual SiRF Star III GPS chipset, an unspecified puzzle game, DivX support, and an SD slot for expansion. It's also roughly in line with other similar units when it comes to price, demanding $430. Those willing to give up on the Bluetooth, FM transmitter, and black casing can save a few bucks, however, with Plenio's otherwise similar VXA-4300 device also shipping soon for $300.
