Parrot's new CK3300 GPS car kit

Parrot has announced its new CK3300 GPS car kit which improves upon its previous CK3100 kit by adding a 12-channel Fastrax GPS receiver. The kit which would retail for ~$250 includes handsfree bluetooth for mobile phones, an LCD display with phonebook and caller ID and audio through car speakers which can automatically mute the car radio. Of course, you would need a bluetooth enabled PDA or laptop to see your GPS maps.

Nasa releases WorldViewer

Nasa has released an open-source application that lets you zoom into any part of the earth and see street-level pictures for many regions. Similar to Keyhole which lets you do the same for a hefty annual price. It seems that WorldViewer will soon be released on Sourceforge, so it will be really interesting to see the hacks that will be done on this application.
