Default GPS vs Gliding Computer

Right after I win the lottery, I'm going to buy a Stemme. I've never flown a glider with either a GPS unit or a gliding computer, and I see that the Stemme comes with both. What do you get with one that you don't get with the other, and vice versa?

Any information would be appreciated.

Most, if not all, glide computers rely on GPS, so the Stemme GPS must be for navigation only.
