so there I was driving to work thinking of how convient this all should be. I've got this nifty garmin street pilot on my dashboard. This has my location, and a nice little map showing where I'm going and what's around me. . To get the map you need to purchase additional data from Garmin and download it to your computer, then transfer the portion you want to the device. Not much of a recurring revenue stream for Garmin since this should work as-is for the next 10 years (depending on the speed of roads). It works really well though It only needs to have a voice recognition interface and a traffic update to be really useful.
