We can’t help but feel snookered by Mio, a company that got its foot in our door by offering great car GPS systems.

Now, it’s created the P550 PDA with embedded GPS antenna, preloaded maps and wireless connectivity. The device comes bundled with an in-car charger and mount, making us think it is a car gadget. But it will also fit in your pocket and purports to be a PDA.

Either way, it is a nice entry into the PocketPC and the GPS craze, running Windows Mobile 5.0 and featuring Bluetooth, WorldMate information software and, of course, coast-to-coast navigation. It sells for $470.
