Sony just announced a new GPS navigation device at CES 2008 called NVU-83T; a new addition to their nav-u series for the U.S. market.

NVU-83T seems to have all the high-end features such as the text to speech, voice commands, and real day traffic knowledge. Of course it additionally has bluetooth capability for taking or making phone calls with a bluetooth enabled phone.

Another feature that is definitely worth mentioning with NVU-83T is

the 4.8″ screen with anti-glare coating and the ultra thin body similar to Sony’s Bravia.

Sony’s new GPS navigation system not only has the super sensitive SiRF StarIII chip but additionally features Position Plus which utilizes a pressure sensor, gyro sensor and an acceleration sensor to keep track of your position when satellite signals are weak.

NV-U83T will be available in February for $500 directly from sonystyle.com.
