    We've seen plenty of specialized GPS units, but this new BBNav device from UK-based Navevo looks to be the first one that's designed specifically to help disabled drivers, or their families and caretakers. To that end, the system comes pre-loaded with information on more than 10,000 "Blue Badge" parking spaces and 3,500 disabled accessible car parks in 150 cities and towns in the UK, as well as a database of more than 20,000 points of interest that are easily accessible for people with disabilities. The unit itself also looks to stack up pretty well against the usual GPS fare, with it packing a 4.3-inch touchscreen, NAVTEQ maps of the UK and Ireland, and hands free Bluetooth calling capabilities, among other standard features. No word on a price just yet, but those interested can sign up to be notified when it's available at the link below.
