GPS Hack

Well I hacked my Jensen GPS I got for Christmas!!

It runs on Windows CE core 4.5, so I did a little research. I added a Win explore button to the main screen so now I can explore it like a normal computer. It even will start up with a windows task bar so I can get to the control panel. I downloaded online a pretty cool MP3/video player. It loads up album art when it plays the songs. The video will play MPEG and allot of other extensions. I haven't tested them all yet, but I have read that I can compress full length DVDs into DivX and watch them on here. Sweet!! I also picked up a 2 GB SD card and loaded it up. It does really good navigation as well. I jacked it into the stereo for great sound.

Here are some pictures

If you Google "Jensen NVX225" it talks about all of the different mods that can be done
