ZDNet UK has an exclusive this week: the first GPS navigation solution for Windows Mobile-based smartphones. ALK's CoPilot Live Smartphone comes in two versions -- software-only or with a Bluetooth GPS receiver as well. Check out our review of this handy and completely wireless route-finder. We also have HP's first handheld/mobile phone combo, the quad-band GSM/GPRS iPaq h6340 -- which also throws in integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. And don't forget to take in I.TECH's laser-projected Virtual Keyboard, plus the remarkably slim and lightweight Sony VAIO X505.
