which handheld gps?

Garmin has a new PDA-based aviation GPS which looks kinda cool. It looks
like it docks in a mount/cradle with some extra button controls for direct
to, scrolling, etc.

I haven't seen any reviews yet though.

yea, bout the same time i posted the question, i got an e-mail from
sportys (they have not seen any of my money for a month and they're
wondering if i died, or what?) top item is that ique with some kind of
attachment attached to the lower right side. what is that & how does it
work? does it come off for nonavaition use?? at $1000ish it's in the
range i'm shopping and i can see doing checklists there too. all kinds
of stuff. solitare at 5000ft?
anyway...yes, this garmin iq needs research.

I took that to be the GPS receiver and some soft buttons (maybe hard) for
the easy operation of the GPS. It plugs into the expansion slot of the PDA.
