TomTom only make Linux OS navigation devices. ( They make a version of the software that can run on Pocket PC, Palm OS and Symbian, but the hardware you buy from TomTom is Linux only sicen the original TomTom GO ). They comply with the GPL, too.
For someone looking for Linux devices, you don't appear to be looking very carefully.

(moreso because the software seemed sucky, more 1994 than 2008 in many ways).

I think it would be hard to improve on the TomTom UI, and other navigation device manufacturers seem to think so, if their shameless imitation is anything to go by...
If you can do better, a fortune awaits...
