Cobra debuts the first GPS-equipped radar detector in US
Cobra, never a company to let you down when you need that special kind of radar that they provide (the ticket avoiding kind), has introduced the US's first GPS-locator equipped radar detector, the XRS R9G -- just like they said they would. What does a radar detector need GPS for? Well, this one holds a database of speed and red-light cameras, warning you when you're approaching so you can ease off the gas pedal, save a few lives, and not get yourself a nasty, nasty ticket. "Across the country, the number of speed and red light cameras is growing exponentially," says Tony Mirabelli, senior vice president of marketing and sales at Cobra, adding, "Now drivers can stay alert no matter where they travel." The company plans to further augment the detector's capabilities with alerts for "black spots" (high accident zones), as well as school and construction alerts. The XRS R9G is available now, retailing for $449.95. [ Engadget reader comments say "The Escort 9500 has been out for few months now and has GPS." ]

Ill stick with the V1, the directional arrows are well worth the extra "hits"

The Passport 9500 has GPS and has been out for 6 mon. to a year. What's the diff? With the Passport, you can see your speed when hit by radar and mark "fake" radar locations like your local grocery mart so it won't go off every time.
