PC Magazine have published their review of Axion's Geo-632 Portable GPS system. 'Portable GPS navigation units are starting to become a commodity. That's great news for consumers because when products become commoditized, prices generally decline. In fact, plenty of units on the market now sit within the $299-to-$349 price range. Most of these devices have similar hardware configurations; 3.5-inch screens, 1 to 2 gigabytes of SD memory, Navteq or Tele Atlas mapping data, SiRFstarIII receivers, and software that runs on top of Microsoft's WinCE platform.

A good example of this trend is the Axion Geo-632 ($349.99 list). When you think of GPS manufacturers, Axion isn't exactly the first name that comes to mind. That's because the company is best known for making portable DVD players and LCD TVs. In fact, the Geo-632 is Axion's debut GPS offering and, frankly, looks very much like a "first-try" product. '
