Default GLONASS Navigation?

Does anyone know if there are any manufacturers including GLONASS Navigation hardware in their navigation units, personal locators, etc.?

Several smartphones and smartpads are capable of utilizing GLONASS signals, but I am curious about aviation related equipment.

That's cool. Years ago some of Northwest's 747 freighters were modified with GLONASS equipment. Apparently it worked okay.
