Given the number of distractions faced by most drivers, it's important that a GPS navigator be simple and easy to operate, and the S102 excels in this area, with a user-friendly interface, several handy front buttons, and a touch-screen panel. Furthermore, the device offers both hand script and voice recognition technologies, giving users a choice of input methods depending on the situation. And thanks to the keyword search function, it's a breeze to set up a destination. The S102 is particularly convenient when the user is busy navigating the road but needs to reroute to a new destination.

Although the S102 is primarily a GPS navigator, it also supports MP3 music playback, so you can load up the device with your favorite digital tunes for long road trips. As an alternative, the 3.5-inch, full-color TFT LCD also displays digital photos in 240 x 320 resolution, in addition to street maps from around the world (the S102 comes with North American maps). And should the 64 MB of built-in memory prove insufficient, you can expand the memory via the Secure Digital (SD) card slot.

The S102, which comes with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that runs for up to four hours per charge, measures 4.3 by 3.4 by 0.8 inches (W x H x D) and carries a one-year warranty.
