Yeah, let me know when Garmin or Tomtom have it. Also let me know when they're going to release it for free. Considering that they charge $100 each year for the map updates, I highly doubt it would be cheap.
The UI for the Dash is also considerably better than Garmin, which is also considerably better than Tomtom. As it stands by itself, the Dash is a pretty darn good GPS unit.
Also, as for the iPhone competing with it. Maybe, but we made it kind of hard to position it that way.
- axod 18y agoAs far as I heard the TomTom has the same feature - you just connect it up via a phone - which seems a better idea. I don't know though - it's just not something I'd pay for. Especially $10 a month.
- alaskamiller 18y agoOkay I guess we'll have to delve into a GPS review: TomTom made an announcement with Vodafone back in 06. Nothing's come out of that. You still need a traffic receiver attached to your unit to get data over the air or you need to plug the unit in to your computer with the Internet to share your map corrections. Dash does this in real time over the air. As for 10 dollars a month: well no one pointed a gun at your head. I find the product more valuable than 10 bucks a month and I'm willing to pay. My yearly Garmin map updates would have been 80 bucks or so anyways without the added benefits.
- axod 18y agoFair enough @ TomTom Sure, I expect if you drive a lot, in traffic hotspots, with a lot of other Dash users, it's worth it.
