Navigon's 7200T Brings Free Lifetime Traffic, Voice Recognition (GPSmagazine.com)

Navigon has announced the 7200T, a feature-rich GPS that will include free lifetime traffic service, as well as voice address entry, and something called "Landmark View 3D".

When I reviewed the Navigon 7100 last year, the impressive list of features was undermined by a pervasive slowness when using the device. Navigon is claiming that the 7200T will sport "next generation software that is faster and easier to use." Read on for more details and pricing info.
