DASHWanting a link to put in a post on how much I'm liking my Kindle, I found - kismet, of course -

The DASH being advertised.  For the now common $400 (ok, if you're a salesman it's $399), it may revolutionize the GPS the way Kindle has revolutionized reading.

It's a 2 way internet connected device, with both cellular and wifi capabilities. When you put in a location, or click on a favorite, or search for a place to go, you get the usual 3 choices of route, but with instant updates on true time, based on actual traffic. Looking for dim sun? It's current, and has the reviews of other DASHers. You can check

  • restaurants,
  • gas prices,
  • movie times. 

You can receive or send an address by e-mail, of send it from your computer. Add categories, put in lists.

WOW! $10/month - just think of the time it could save you. More information on the DASH site.

Rob - I'm waiting to hear, too.

Chuck - it's all about options.

Sharon, it is the size of a softball. My TomTom fits in my shirt pocket.

 

But this traffic things is what I really care about.
