Got an email from Magellan. This looks pretty cool. http://www.magellangps.com/iphone/iphoneapp.asp?utm_source=eblast&utm_medium=email&utm_content=btn-learnmore&utm_campaign=iphonelaunch Nice that you can have music playing while using the GPS mode.

Hmmm

$299 for a phone
$80 for the application
$80 per month for the service

Not water proof, not winter proof, tough to use with gloves on.

I think I'll stay with my 76.

Oh and it is a Magellan so your still 50' off. Wink
