Becker readies Z100 Crocodile GPS system for IFA debut
Believe it or not, the Berlin-based IFA trade show is nearly upon us, and Becker is more than prepared. Reportedly, the Z100 Crocodile will be making the journey, complete with a 4.3-inch display, an SD card slot, European NAVTEQ maps, a SiRFstarIII GPS receiver and RDS-TMC support. Furthermore, the unit will sport an ultra-rugged exterior meant to handle nearly any jungle excursion you set out on. Expect to hear more (a price and release date would be just fine, Becker) when IFA commences late next month.

Enough of this crap.
When am I gonna read on endgadget an article like this:
"It's The best possible a-gps device, and it is also an excellent hand free & videoconferencing smartphone with the flexibility & browsing and networking capability of a good laptop pc , on which right side the optical zoom of its integrated HD still&video cam can be also used as a powerful microscope or a telescope, while on its left side is positioned a multimedia projector capable of beaming also a surprisingly effective virtual qwerty keyboard.
Even if its fully customizable UI lets you access all its function through any of its paper thin four (4) , double sided sliding touch screens, its very precise motion detection & control gyroscopics and its voice and writing recognition , render them almost superfluos in most occasions.
Since it will cost no more than the average ballpen Engadget thinks that this device is prbably going to be a hit."

OK, so its a ruggedized GPS case - what about the screen?
And does it play Quake?

i think you can actually play games on it, kind of like you can do with the iphone. the really cool thing, though, seems to be that it´s waterproof.
