Navigon Introduces The $50 iPhone Design Car Kit At Macworld Expo 2011
January 31, 2011
Navigon introduces a new affordable car mounting kit for iPhone 3G, 3GS, and iPhone 4 users at this year's Macworld Expo.
The iPhone Design Car Kit offers simple mounting of your iPhone to the windshield or dashboard for safe and convenient turn-by-turn navigation use. Navigon wasn't focusing on offering an accessory with the most features, but rather a mount that would look 'clean' and be minuscule.
"The iPhone is the most elegant smartphone available, therefore a mount should never get in the way of showcasing the design," said Gerhard Mayr, vice-president worldwide mobile phones & new markets, NAVIGON. “The new NAVIGON car kit is a stylish example of German tech design with its 'barely there' look, letting iPhone users navigate in style."The new mount is available for either iPhone 3G and 3GS owners or those utilizing the sleeker iPhone 4. Both packages include the designer mount with large suction cup, a DC USB car charger, and a five foot long Dock connector to USB cable. Additionally, Navigon is offering a package of two adhesive dashboard mounting pads for $10. Of course, Navigon intends for this accessory to compliment their MobileNavigator iOS software, but it will do a great job with any other navigation app for the iPhone. The iPhone 3 Design Car Kit by Navigon and iPhone 4 Design Car Kit by Navigon are available for $49.95, including US shipping and handling. Customers can save $5 if they purchase a Design Car Kit by February 3, 2011.
