According to Digitimes.com two largest GPS device vendors Garmin and TomTom are working on their own-brand GPS handset. The info sounds logical given the world trend of increasing demand for convergent GPS-solutions and vast potential of both companies in GPS-navigation sphere.

The companies are said to actively cooperate with Inventec Appliances, Quanta Computer and Compal Communications, probably one of them will manufacture new navigation handsets of Garmin and TomTom. It’s unclear under which brand new products will come out and what software they will have. Maybe even the vendors don’t still know it.
