Haicom HI-505SD GPS navigation device

Looks like the Taiwanese are a pretty busy lot these days with plenty of product releases. Haicom's HI-505SD is yet another GPS navigation device to hit the market, except that it takes a rather unconventional path in terms of power. The HI-505SD can be powered when hooked up to another host device such as PDAs, notebooks, and UMPCs, hence the non-existent battery. What your host device would lose, though, is an SD slot. Although the idea behind the HI-505SD is pretty neat, one has to be extra careful with battery life when it comes to a power-intensive technologies such as GPS and Bluetooth. There is no word on pricing or availability.
