Think I like this TomTom better than the Gizmondo

You know that little Gizmondo that I want for my ATV? I think I may have found something I like better. In checking out the Curry's site I found sat nav from currys and a cute little item listed as "HP + TOMTOM HP 1950 & NAV5 GPS Recievers" under their GPS & Sat Nav Devices tab. The little thing has some great features such as 64MB internal memory + 128MB SD card, Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 Edition, a 240x320 screen resolution and Voice direction as well as Favorite destination function and an E.T.A function.

I plan to check it out in more detail before I buy, but just look at the cute little thing, it would be so at home mounted on my ATV's handlebars - wouldn't it? Curry's has a lot of other GPS and SatNav systems though, so I plan to do a bit of comparisons between the ones they have and see which I like the best - cuteness counts for a lot, but I want to be sure I'm not overlooking some features I'd like more on another system. My brother uses GPS with his Paragliding and the things are such wonderful devices, I definitely want one for the ATV - particularly if I get into riding out on back country trails and such.
