Maxian's E900T PMP / GPS navigator offers near-endless possibilities

At a glance, it's easy to mistake the Maxian E900T for other members of the Maxian family, such as the E900DIC or D900 Neo. Let's face it -- this company has some fundamental problems when it comes to differentiating between models. The latest entry into the lineup comes in the form of a wild, do-it-all PMP -- one which incorporates audio and video playback, a DMB receiver, GPS navigation, and an always-handy dictionary into one delicious package. The Windows CE-based system boasts an 800 x 480 4.3-inch touchscreen, a 30GB or 60GB hard drive, support for WMV, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DiVX / XviD, H.264, WMA, AAC, MP3, and OGG formats (amongst others), plus the aforementioned DMB compatibility. The E900T is capable of outputting 720p HD video, sports Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound, and includes Burr-Brown audio circuitry which it outputs via S/PDIF. When you slap this thing into its carmount, it also becomes a full featured GPS navigator, taking advantage of the GPS receiver in the cradle to provide turn-by-turn directions and other navigation functions you know and love, like locating Wendy's (in Korea, at least). No word on when, or if, this will be available in the States, but it couldn't hurt to write some letters of encouragement.

Damn me likey. Bring it on baby (in the UK please).

[Raul @ Jan 2nd 2008 9:41AM]

Official website states that it can output 720x480 H.264, not 720p (1280x720). It'd rather be 480p. anyways high definition is useless in a PMP

[Raul @ Jan 2nd 2008 9:44AM]

Sorry, actually it does output 720p.

Sure it does "everything", but how well does it do it?

"Windows CE-based system"

Anybody still cares ?

[SteveMB @ Jan 2nd 2008 12:45PM]

That's better than a crappy interface that this thing would probably have without it.
