Harman Kardon presents Guide + Play GPS-300 and GPS-200 combination GPS navigation and multimedia devices - portable navigation with an integrated music player in a stylish design.

They offer the ideal mobile solution for safely getting from point A to B while also providing high quality entertainment. Enjoy classical music in the park or rock tunes in the garage, and find the quickest route to the new cocktail bar in the center of town. The Guide + Play GPS-300 and GPS-200 make all of this possible.

The intuitive user interface with color-coded menus and touchscreen functions make the two new models extremely enjoyable and easy to use. They feature a clear design with clean lines, and the slim, exceptionally portable design makes them not only practical, but attractive as well. Both multimedia navigators come pre-loaded with high resolution 2D and 3D maps for immediate navigational use and the uost accuracy. The Harman Kardon GPS-300 provides fast door-to-door navigation throughout all of Western Europe. The map segments in navigation mode appear much larger to users in the 10 cm widescreen display than in many other devices. The high resolution, exceptionally bright display and anti-aliased graphics and text enhance the visual experience.

With the new Harman Kardon GPS-300 navigation device, stressful traffic jams are a thing of the past thanks to the integrated Traffic Message Channel, which continuously provides up-to-date traffic information.

The Harman Kardon GPS-200 for the Italian market features detailed maps for Italy, San Marino and Vatican City.
