The new GPS3000 by Leadertone is set to be shown off at CES, and boy does it have some showing off to do. This GPS navigator is actually more than just a GPS; its a media powerhouse. Its capable of playing videos (WMV, ASF, and AVI), music, (WMA9, MP3, and WAV), and pictures (JPG, GIF, BMP and PNG). A very cool feature of the GPS3000 is that you can either hook it up to an onboard chip or independently with connection to a GPS receiver. Movies should be easy to view on the 3.5 inch LCD display with 65000 color support; this would suck to watch full length movies on, but funny Youtube clips in the car, now that would be fun. You will have to wait for pricing until CES, but from the sounds of the GPS3000 it looks like you will be paying a pretty penny for all the features included with this. Its like you are buying a Video iPod with GPS capabilities (Steve Jobs are you listening to me right now?) — Nick Rice
