Doug Raeburn of PocketPC Thoughts reviews the MyGuide 500

"A Pocket PC with a built-in GPS receiver and bundled navigation software is nothing new; we’ve reviewed several such units over the past couple of years. In the past, such units have been mostly traditional Pocket PC designs, with at most only an antenna to distinguish them in appearance from their "non-navigation system" counterparts. The MyGuide series changes all that. With its landscape design and specialized navigation controls, it looks much like the dedicated navigation systems marketed by such big names in the GPS world as Garmin and Magellan. The MyGuide 500 has the right look, but does it have the right stuff to go head-to-head with those purpose-built units? Read on to find out!"

This unit is more than a dedicated GPS, it has MP3 Player, Photo Viewer, Movie Player, and Personal management functionality too. It’s powered by a 416mhz PXA270 processor and runs OnCourse Navigator.
