New GPS devices
Two interesting new GPS devices:
Nokia LD-4W Bluetooth GPS Module Approved by FCC
Will replace the trusty LD-3W that works with phones of any brand, which this device is also likely to do. It seems to be considerable smaller, and designed to be used in a key ring.
Samsung's i550 brings GPS navigation
Sporting Series 60 possibly makes it comparable to N95 in feature set. I doubt that it's a slider, as proposed in the note. Rather the top and bottom are based on different materials, hence the design "seam".
