When we first received our MiND unit we weren't even sure what it was. Now that we've had some time to explore all the features of the unit it's still hard to say exactly what it is. Think of it as a sub-compact web-book, a navigation unit and a portable hard drive all rolled into one. It can connect to the internet via WiFi or pair to a Bluetooth device like your phone. With a full touch screen you can browse the Web and there are even shortcut icons for your favorite sites like Myspace andYoutube. The next-generation navigation is spot-on and includes features like traffic updates. The unit can be updated via the Clarion site to make sure you always have the newest technology available. One of our favorite features is the unit's ability to link with Google Maps. Say for example that you know the name of a store you want to go to but you are unsure of the address - just Google it and the MiND will take you there! Our only complaint is that the battery life didn't meet our desire to use the unit, but fortunately an upgraded battery is available.

Available in sizes ranging from 17X8'' all the way up to 20X10'' you can mount these babies any almost anything.
