Winner of Popular Mechanics’ Editor’s Choice Award, the New AVN2210p Pairs Convenient Portability with Superior Sound and Functionality, Offering Drivers an All-In-One, In-Dash and Portable Navigation Unit with iPod, CD, CD-R/RW, MP3 and WMA Capabilities
ECLIPSE, designer and manufacturer of precision audio, video and navigation products, announced today it is shipping its award winning AVN2210p units to dealers across the United States. The newest product in ECLIPSE’s Audio Visual Navigation (AVN) suite of products, the AVN2210p creates a new in-dash, portable navigation category that combines superior sound quality with TomTom’s premier portable navigation device offering an all-in-one solution for audiophile consumers.
“It was important for us to begin shipping in time for the summer driving season and keep our CES promise of delivering our complete installed/PND solution in spring,” said Mike Odle, VP of sales for ECLIPSE. “In developing the AVN2210p, we aimed at fulfilling the consumer demand for a high-performance system that can access all the popular music sources today, as well as provide the best possible portable navigation available on the market. As the premier brand for portable navigation, TomTom is the ideal partner for us to co-develop this distinctive new product that marks another ECLIPSE first in the industry.”
Having been named a Consumer Electronics Association 2007 Innovations Honoree in the highly competitive Mobile Electronics category, the AVN2210p also recently received the coveted 2007 Editor’s Choice Award from leading consumer magazine, Popular Mechanics.
The AVN2210p has standard Bluetooth connectivity integrated in the unit requiring no other modules.
