GPS also give you ground speed, so if you have a good idea what the wind speed/direction is you can approximately guess your airspeed, at least on final - so you can tell if you are way overspeed anyway.

Still, best advice is to learn to fly by "feel", once I am on final, I only glance at ASI occasionaly, and from short final don't look at it at all.
