Hey, someone realized that a decent GPS navigation system doesn’t need to cost you $1000…

The iQue (nytimes.com free registration required)

Just take a PalmOS device, load it up with GPS maps (and provide detailed ones you can load into memory with gas stations, restaurants, etc), and you’re set.

I don’t travel enough to unfamiliar places to even come close to justifying dropping $500-600 on this (especially considering I’ve got MS Pocket Streets on my iPAQ), but still, it’s a pretty darn clever idea.
