Rod Begbie : Dash Express GPS Video and Deets: True Traffic Reporting and Custom Maps for $599 - I *really* like the look of this upcoming GPS -- it gathers the speeds of other users over time and warns you when there's slow traffic ahead, even on roads that SmartTraveller, etc. don't cover. Will have to check them out at CES. Tags : dash.net gps traffic
