The Best Handheld Gps Devices On The Market Today

By Paul Julian

Remember the days when GPS units could only be installed on the dashboard of your vehicle? We do too – and that’s why we were thrilled when we learned that our favorite techie toys are now incorporating GPS technology from trusted brands like Garmin, Magellan and TomTom. Products from cell phones to PDAs have caught the GPS fever, turning everyday electronic essentials into convenient – and affordable – hand held GPS devices.

Want an electronic device that will allow you to store emails, maintain your busy schedule and even keep track of those to-do lists – all while navigating you from Point A to Point B? Then you need to check out the latest PDAs with GPS capabilities, many of which can be found in your favorite department or electronic store. Not in the market for a new PDA? Not a problem – there’s tons of great software on the market today that will turn your normal PDA into a navigating dream. These great multi-tasking devices take all of the stress out of managing your day-to-day routine while directing you from one meeting or social function to the next. You can even use your PDA with GPS capabilities to look up information about your favorite restaurant, movie theatre or mall – all from the palm of your hand! We recommend TeleNav, an innovative third-party GPS software system that’s compatible with most PDAs, as well as some sophisticated smartphones.

Another great handheld GPS unit on the market today is the Palm Treo 800w, which not only has all of the great benefits of superior GPS navigation – it has Wi-Fi capabilities as well.
