"Though I've long believed Garmin (NASDAQ: GRMN) was easily the best managed firm in the GPS space, it continues to feel the sting from competitive forces," says Paul McWilliams.

Here, the technology stock specialist and editor of Next Inning reviews the company and the prospects for its new entry in the cell phone market -- the nuvifone.

"As you would expect, the nuvifone is very GPS-centric with all sorts of Geo-tagging features for email, SMS and pictures. It also includes an Opera browser and is fully capable of viewing Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents and working with both personal and enterprise email systems.

"While I've not seen one in person yet, what I've heard from those who have and from what I've seen on the GRMN web site, I think the product has potential.

For 25 years, Steven Halpern, editor of TheStockAdvisors.com, has surveyed the leading financial newsletter advisors asking for their favorite stocks for the coming year. This article is one of 100+ ideas in the Best Stocks for 2008 report.

"If you are looking for an excellent technology company with plenty of upside potential, I recommend L.G. Philips LCD Co, LTD (NYSE: LPL)," my favorite aggressive speculation for 2008," says Dennis Slothower, editor of Stealth Stocks.

"The company, located in South Korea, is the world's largest merchant supplier of large-size TFT-LCD panels, primarily used in high-definition televisions, notebook computers, desktop monitors, cell phones and other applications.

"Its display panels are included in products sold by LG Electronics, Philips Electronics, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Toshiba, and Apple, among others.

"LPL is at the cutting edge of technology and is benefiting from the insatiable demand for consumer electronics. It is also currently trading at low valuations based on sales and book value. At $28 a share LPL is trading only 1.4X sales and 2.4X book value.

"The company has $1.8 billion in cash on its balance sheets and sales are growing at 43% growth rate. Over the trailing 12 months, sales reached more than $14 billion. The intrinsic value on this stock is in the $50 to $60 range, which I see hitting in the next two or three years."
