TwoNav Aventura GPS Receiver

The TwoNav Aventura GPS receiver is something special as it is able to accept virtually any kind of map without running into compatibility issues, which means you can rock to vector and raster imagery, enabling folks to access aerial photos among others. Sounds like the perfect tool for folks who want to scan and calibrate any type of map prior to uploading to the deice. The Aventura also comes with a 3.5" touchscreen display that is ideal for both handheld and automobile use, featuring pre-loaded Tele Atlas maps and topo maps for most countries where it is sold. Depending on your preference, the display can be rotated in either portrait or landscape mode. It is rainproof and powered by a SiRFStar III chipset, offering an SDHC memory card slot, an electronic compass, a barometric altimeter and up to 20 hours of battery life. Expect to pick up the TwoNav Aventura this June 1 in Europe for 599 Euros.

Samsung Jack (AT&T)

The good: The Samsung Jack brings a fresh, updated look over its predecessor and includes a faster processor and better camera. Call quality is excellent, and the Windows Mobile smartphone offers 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth.

The bad: The Jack uses Samsung's proprietary ports, so you can't use a standard USB cable or headset. The phone feels slippery.

The bottom line: As the successor to the BlackJack series, the Samsung Jack brings a fresh look and some nice feature upgrades to make it one of AT&T's more solid and affordable messaging smartphones. However, we tend to favor the Nokia E71x's design.
