English term or phrase: OEMs, PND companies

I was wondering if you knew what OEM and PND stand for ?

"The merged company will give automotive OEMs, insurance companies as well as wireless and PND companies a clear choice"

French translation:équipementiers/fabricants de PND

Explanation:
Juste un petit message rapide pour faire avancer les choses... :-)

Ces deux abréviations peuvent se garder telles quelles en français.

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer = OEM, équipementier
Ici, je dirais "équipementiers automobiles". Voir:
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_Equipment_Manufacturer

PND = Personal Navigation Device (on trouve aussi Portable Navigation Device) = PND, assistant de navigation personnel.
Donc ici: fabricants de PND/d'assistants de navigation personnels.
Voir: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/PND

Bonne traduction! :-)
