GPS-Enabled NavJacket by O’Neil Europe
By J. Wallace
O’Neil Europe has announced the NavJacket. This is a Gore-Tex mountain jacket with an integrated GPS system built in; you can check your coordinates with a display sewn into the sleeve, and you get audio instructions through a speaker in the hood. You also get weather details, route data, and there’s an interface to connect your mobile phone. A friend locator function lets you track others down or take the same route. The NavJacket is a skier and snowboarder’s dream come true, scheduled for release in Fall/Winter 2008.
