Route 66 claims that Nokia is looking toward placing a GPS chip inside each handset they manufacturer in the near future. While the N Series are currently recipients of this feature, Nokia aims to be on top of the GPS navigation game by integrating such a feature inside every Nokia handset. This means you won’t get tiny displays anymore, as anything smaller than 2.5″ will be painful to look at after a while. In addition, cellphones will have their already short battery life taxed even more with GPS functionality. Is this another case where hardware manufacturers push a technology to customer whether they want it or not?
