iriver’s latest product is out, and unlike their more traditional range of PMPs they’ve branched off into “eco-friendly bike navigation”. Â The iriver NV mini bike edition is a sliced-down version of their NV classic, keeping the touchscreen, GPS and media playback but dropping the integrated DMB TV tuner.
The 3.5-inch 320 x 240 touchscreen is half the size of that of the NV classic, but iriver have scaled up the UI to make gloved cyclists’ fingers more welcome. Â Underneath the custom UI there’s Windows CE 5.0, playing content from an SDHC card with an integrated speaker together with a 3.5mm headset socket.
Ironically the NV mini seemingly comes with an in-car mount, whereas a handlebar mount is a separate accessory. Â It’s on sale now for 188,000 South Korean won ($156); no word on whether it might make it over to the US or Europe, as iriver’s other PMPs have.
