how often do you really need directions?
May 9th, 2006Speaking of phones, now that you can get driving directions from your cell phone how many people would benefit from spending on an often hard to use and soon to be outdated built in NAV system?
One caveat TIME magazine points out:
it needs to be able to talk to the network in order to download navigation information. It can steer you into the wilderness with no problem, but you better remember how to get back out because this won’t be able to help you.
UPDATE: The system can also tell you where the cheapest gas is within 5 miles of your present location…
