GPS navigation is becoming a necessary companion for drivers on the road.  Since I have a tendency to eat late at night, I personally use my GPS device to locate the nearest doughnut shop or burger joint.  In fact, my search for a late night munchies can now get a little easier or more entertaining thanks to a new GPS offering by Clarion called the ClarionMiND.

the ClarionMiND combines GPS navigation and real-time Points of Interest (POI) with Internet based entertainment and full web browsing.

Hailed as a next generation Internet navigation device, the ClarionMiND combines GPS navigation and real-time Points of Interest (POI) with Internet based entertainment and full web browsing.  Users can take advantage of various features such as two-way connected navigation, high-speed Internet experiences, digital music and video playback, and entertainment options.

The ClarionMiND has Internet connectivity via WiFi or Bluetooth when used with a mobile phone.  There’s also Internet browsing capabilities, optimized MySpace and YouTube applications.  A 800×480 touch screen provides plenty of visibility while driving as well.  Oh did I mention the ClarionMiND has GPS functionality too? ;)

The ClarionMiND is powered by the new Intel(R) Atom(TM) processor Z5xx series and is scheduled to hit store shelves by the 4th quarter of 2008 in the U.S. market.
