Why are handheld GPS not certified for IFR

There are plenty of GPS units on the market, for instance the Garmin ones. Some of the panel mount ones are certified for IFR approaches. The handeld ones usually have virtually identical hardware and software, but NONE do IFR. Can some Legal Eagle tell me why not?

Cheers
