		<description><![CDATA[Garmin (GRMN) recently launched a new connected portable navigation device (PND), nuvi 1690, with several robust features. AT&#38;T(T) will be its wireless network partner for the device. The product is expected to ship in the fourth quarter, which should enable the company to make the most of the holiday season. According to iSuppli, connected PNDs are likely to grow from around 3% in the North American market in 2008 to around 15% in 2010 and constitute half of all PNDs by 2013. Therefore, the new device is targeted at an important growth segment. Garmin’s nuLink service enables the user to connect to Google (GOOG) Local, which provides localized information on traffic, weather, fuel prices, movie listings, flight status, local events and even telephone listings. The service includes Garmin’s patent-pending Ciao, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. (LLL) yesterday won a contract from the U.S. Army to provide power generators for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle. The bid, whose financial terms were undisclosed, was awarded to the company’s Combat Propulsion Systems and Magnet Motors units. The company has already started work on the contract and expects to deliver the initial lot of 10 prototypes by the next two fiscal years. L-3 Communications’ power generators are expected to supply higher electrical power, thereby increasing the vehicles mission loads apart from upgrading integration options for high-capacity auxiliary loads. This order will boost the dwindling order backlog of the company, which in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 fell 20% year-over-year to $3.3 billion.

		<description><![CDATA[Garmin (GRMN) is an OEM of GPS-based equipment. June quarter results were much better than consensus expectations, signaling an end to the downturn. The strong revenue and margin performance in the recently concluded quarter, the company s market share, brand equity, financial position, compelling new products and management history of execution are encouraging factors. Although the near-term outlook is cloudy and competition remains fierce, we continue to believe that the company will perform better than peers. Consequently, we are reiterating our Outperform recommendation on Garmin shares. Zacks Investment Research View original at: Zacks.com News Feed]]></description>

Although the name of the carrier was not announced, rumor has it that it could be AT&#38;T (T), the second-largest player in the U.S. The product will be manufactured by Taiwanese PC manufacturer Asustuk. Garmin expects the product to generate $100-200 million in revenue this year, which would add an incremental 4% to the top line. This means that Garmin would still be short of the one million unit mark this year. Although the company’s small size and vulnerability in the intensely competitive market could delay initial customer response, Asus is geared to crossing the million unit threshold in 2010.
