Here's what I'm looking for, or perhaps it will soon be coming onto the market...

I'm wanting to get a hand-held GPS system for Korea and what it has got on it would be DMB, enought memory to store MP3 and movie files and then language dictionaries to boot. Internet accessible.

I've priced the hand-helds at Yongsan for about 350-400,000.

Would a Sony PSP be able to handle a GPS system and store dictionaries via CD-rom? I believe the PSP has a wireless internet connection.

Not sure how these things work.

Perhaps I need one of those mini-laptops.

I believe the V43 can be rigged to be a handheld GPS device.

How about the PSP? Can is there some CD-Rom w/ Korean GPS available that can be downloaded onto the thing? PSPs are pretty good for handling other types of media.

Any GPS software out there available for desktop or notebook users?
