Axim GPS vs Standalone GPS

I recently puchased an Axim X50v mainly for GPS usage but found myself using the wireless internet in my house and playing games on the go... (I hate to admit, but I'm not organized enough to use it as a PDA!)

Anyway - last week I started a new job and was given a Blackberry 7100 phone which I carry with me everywhere I go, not to mention a nice laptop. It seems since I got these my Axim has really only been used just for GPS - with the blackberry I can check email, play games (if i want to get some) and surf the web.. and if i need more within the house at least - I have the laptop (also with built in wireless..)

Anyway - my question- since i'm relly only using the Axim as a GPS now -w hat are the advantages when compared to a standalone GPS? Would I be better of selling/trading the Axim..? What are some of the pro's/con's of a standalone? I always preferred the Axim/handheld solution jsut cause of the flexibility - but if I'm not utilizing that anymore am I losing out?
