I am glad at Chinavasion that it keeps on providing us with the cheap electronics from China. Might not be cool always, but mostly, the gadgets are cheap and may replace some expensive ones! This time, they have come up with a slim GPS, they call “Galaxy’s Slimmest GPS”. It is 13mm thick. So is it really the slimmest GPS of the world? No! iPhone is 12.3 mm thick! Oh! so iPhone is not a GPS? It is..! Ok ok! I agree, it is the slimmest of all the stand-alone GPSs! I have to admire! So now, you can have another slim and smart gadget! But wait! it is not that cool! Chinavasion is taking no responsibility to provide you with the Good GPS software! It also can’t run hardware specific GPS softwares like Garmin. But on the other hand, since it runs Windows CE 5.0 OS, you may find it easy to get a software for you!

Talking about the other aspects,  this new gadget has a 5-inch touchscreen SiRF-Atlas III processor and the maps are stored on a MicroSD. Interestingly, voice guidance is also present with the 2D and 3D map support!

I think, I should buy this gadget. You may want to buy it because it has an iPhone-like look and screen icons, its too slim and smart, its touchsceen, has voice guidance, can play media files in MP4, AVI, 3GP, MOV, WMV, M4A, WAV, MP3, WMA and even SWF formats, has buit-in FM transmitter but you may also not want to buy it because it doesn’t have a good GPS software pre-installed! Oh! yes! Its too cheap! only $100! So what have you decided? Share your thoughts below!

By the way, you can buy it here.
