Fujitsu to make GPS standard on Loox 500 and 520 PDAs

According to sources, Fujitsu is prepping two new models in its Loox Pocket PC line—both the Loox 500 and 520 will come with integrated GPS and will run on Windows Mobile 5.0. Each will sport similar features, including Bluetooth and VGA displays, the main difference between them being that the higher-end model will include WiFi. No pricing, and no word on international availability, but we have to give Fujitsu some props for including GPS as standard, rather than making it an add-on via CF or SDIO. Oh, and that VGA screen, so very good.

[Thanks, Led]

only if it is a SirF III chipset. that way the pda does not have to sit on the dash in the car and you can use it in urban areas like NYC
