    I love me some Nuvi.

    The one thing I don't like are any of their mounts.

    Highly recommended: alternatives from the mountguys.com.

    Any chance Garmin could incorporate a rolling recording feature to the camera, for things like accidents? It would almost literally be a FDR.

    This provides vast new alternatives to the hazards of driving while texting. You could also get yourself killed driving while browsing, driving while watching YouTube, driving while editing your Google Docs, and so much more! Get ready for the future! (by which I mean, make sure your airbags and in working order and pay extra attention to the road while driving, because the guy in that other car certainly isn't).

    @jdale: You can also drive with your feet, or even your butt. Only the stupid will do such things, and you can't fix stupid.

    i really, really, really, really wish Garmin would get off their asses and make a dock that you can stick in your car that will replace your car deck...

    like how hard is that? add a stupid am/fm radio and be done with it!!

    i hate having my gps sit on my dash plugged in with a lighter outlet and a aux cable running from the unit to my car deck

    COME ON GARMIN THROW ME A FREAKING BONE!!

    Why would anyone want or need a browser or camera in a GPS.
    A GPS should just be a GPS, nothing more.

    @wargames2007: But that's the problem. Once smart phones become so common that most people have them, and GPS on smart phones becomes better-implemented, few people will want to pay more money for standalone GPS units. The entire product category will become obsolete like typewriters, whose purpose was usurped by computers.
