The market for GPS navigation is indeed a high growth, but none the less cruel. If the number of major brands who want to market GPS devices is increasingly important, some of them will withdraw quickly in this market. The U.S. Garmin has confirmed it has stopped production PDAs running Windows Mobile GPS and a PDA GPS Palm OS. It is thus clear that all PDA equipped with a GPS receiver integrated brand will no longer be marketed, with the exception of the last PDA GPS Palm OS of the mark, the Garmin iQue 3000, which was to be launched in early year but who suffers at the moment still a long delay.

Yet presented at various exhibitions multimedia Europeans, the NDP to mark Philips had until then be marketed in the first quarter of 2007. The company announced a few hours ago that it would eventually no PND market to refocus on its core business, namely consumer electronics. "PND Philips will never be marketed" With an impressive number of new players in the GPS navigation who proposed at the end of this year a first or a new model PND, it remains to be seen what will be the next companies to leave the market became increasingly competitive and dominated mostly by TomTomn, Mio or Navman.
