It pays to hear all the facts, before making a decision.

Would You Consider An iPad Mini With Garmin StreetPilot Onboard Instead Of A Traditional GPS?

I continue to read reports that Apple will release an iPad Mini http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57414553-37/new-ipad-mini-... If it happens and if the price were reasonable, would you consider buying that and adding Garmin StreetPilot Onboard https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=389&pID=98479 in lieu of a regular, traditional GPS?

Cameras on route # 3o

Is anybody familiar with route #30 in the town of Lancaster PA. Recently I found myself driving through this quaint little town in the middle of Amish country in pennsylvania. I was shocked and amazed to see a cameras installed every 100,150,from each other. Yet my gps said nothing. they are not new according to a waiter in a local restaurant the've been there more than 6 months.

OTR driver GPS

I would like to hear opinion of other drivers as to which GPS system they think is the best, and why.

Experience With Tele-Marketers

My favorite personal experience was when this man called to tell me how much money I could save on my mortgage if I changed over to his company. (mispronouncing my name a few times along the way). He told me all about the options his company could provide. So, I let him ask me questions - nothing really personal - not for several minutes.

And now, back to your regularly scheduled forum - already in progress . . .

2 miles = $2 million per year revenue

My, my, my! The city of Hopewell VA is raking it in. 11 deputies to patrol a 2 mile stretch of I-295 for speeders.

Now the state is trying to put a damper on it.

Sorry, it is a lengthy article, but a good and informative read.

New GNSS Technical Wiki available

From ESA, the European Space Agency:

http://www.navipedia.net/index.php/Main_Page

"The reference for Global Navigation Satellite Systems."

It's in early beta, but looks incredibly promising, with coverage of all the global and local GNSS being developed.
