    • Pioneer’s AVIC-F500BT GPS monstrosity slips through the FCC

    By Paul Miller | April 18, 2008

    Filed under:

    So Pioneer’s cramming a 5.8-inch 800 x 480 screen into this AVIC-F500BT “portable” navigation device, and just got themselves some FCC approval for shipping it over to the States. In addition to that gargantuan screen, the F500 really excels at connectivity, with Bluetooth for hands-free calling, an optional traffic antenna, and some ND-BC2 add-on to hook the unit up to a rear view camera. You can also use it to control your iPod, but there’s an SD card slot if you want to handle those tunes with the F500. No word on price or availability, but this unit sells as the NavGate 500 over in Europe for a whopping 699 Euro — about $1100 US. Ouch.
