The most interesting feature of the MiTAC MiStation is the built in GPS receiver, and it will also be bundled with GPS navigation software.

The MiTAC MiStation will go on sale in November for £282 (about $560) for the 60GB Linux version and £400 (about $800) for the 20GB SSD model, considering the built in GPS this is quite reasonably priced as stand alone Sat Nav units retail here for about £200.
