None of them have one.. but many of them have an accelerometer, which isn't the same thing. It's used for dead reckoning when there's no signal (in a tunnel, for example).

As for all the AGPS stuff, anyone with a decent GPS won't ever have to worry about that.. :) (/me glances at the Holux M1200 BT keychain GPS :D)
