Alpine iXA-W407 Digital Media Station With iPhone/iPod Support iXA-W407 Touchscreen with Optional PND Capabilities

If you re looking an in-car (head unit) entertainment system Alpine hope
that there just released iXA-W407 Digital Media Station, which comes a 7
touchscreen display and touts both iPhone and iPod support, may get
you splashing the cash in no small part due to its optional capability
to function as a navigations aid thanks to its ability to hook up with
Alpine s NVE-M300 GPS Navigation Drive.

Available either separately or as a combined package bringing together
both the iXA-W407 Digital Media Station and the NVE-M300 GPS Navigation
Drive (without the latter you ll have to make do without the device
functioning as a navigational aid) Alpine s latest Digital Media
Station, apart from offering up the aforementioned 7 QVGA touchscreen
display, boasts integrated FM/AM tuner, USB connectivity (allowing you
to hook up other PMPs and/or DAPs other than the supported iPhone/iPod)
as well as integrated Parrot Bluetooth wireless technology allowing for
hands free calls from cell phones. No CD player, however.
Aside from the optional NVE-M300 GPS Navigation Drive, which serves to
bring full GPS navigation functionality to the iXA-W407 " which,
according to Alpine, uses three technologies " satellite-linked
positioning data, gyro sensor technology (to determine the vehicle s
direction) and accelerometer technology (to gauge the vehicle s speed)
" resulting in continuous coverage of the location of your vehicle "
you also have the option of bolting-on the TUA-T550HD HD Radio Module
and/or the PXA-H100 which brings IMPRINT Sound Processor technology into
the equation to enhance sound clarity.

Yes, as you d probably gathered, if you want to opt in for the whole
deal its going to cost you, and cost you dear, as the iXA-W407 Digital
Media Station alone will set you back $800. Go for the iXA-W407 and the
NVE-M300 GPS Navigation Drive and you can factor in an additional $450
whilst it you want to add the TUA-T550HD HD Radio Module that ll be
another that s another $230 " and, well, you get the picture.
