A great value play to be sure and a great company, but they are going to kill themselves trying to compete in the cell phone market. Eventually too, I'm sure GPS units will just become generic and outsourced to china, just like everything else.

one word: google

Navigator? What is that?

Betting against this one. I think the glory days are past.

This company is well diversified in marine, aviation, auto, and outdoor GPS. Even if phone sales break even, they will continue to grow. International phone sales will likely be better than USA. Recent huge drop not justified without knowing earnings and guidance, due out next week.

RIP - killed by google. murder in the 1st.

Leader in GPS systems. GPS will become standard in every car.

it is difficult to compete with googles free navigation

Future doesn't seem to bright. Google is coming out with a free turn by turn nav app.
Garmin phone is also a failure.

Financials, diversity, market share & inside ownership say hold on for the long term.
Recs
While the stock appears cheap, the contracting margins and the expensive foray into the cell phone business will keep the stock price depressed. This company is just fighting against the wave that is the GPS commoditization.

I haven't looked at there numbers, I don't know how sales are doing, this is purely based on the Nuvifone. What a disappointment! Two years ago it might have had a chance but not today. The product is getting horrid reviews and is plagued with problems......
Garmin makes great standalone GPS's, but this one is going to give them indigestion. They didn't want to develop for the iPhone or Android, they wanted to be different and release there own device and I respect that. However, then they need to compete with the others in price, features and quality. In this case they failed on all accounts. Sorry but this was a big mistake.

Why would I need a Garmin GPS device when I can get one in my iPhone, blackberry, palm etc?
It seems like this company's business is being commoditized, bad for Garmin good for customers who want to use their iPhone, blackberry, palm as a GPS device too.
