did you know that you can do that too while moving? just press the On button and they can download any directions you want on the fly without you hitting the car beside you as you try to cradle your tiny android, or do you have the htc tablet?

No Ive got the droid, and yes it does require some skill not to hit the car in front of you. That is very true.

But with droid you can press 1 button and tell it where you want to go, same as the onstar. But the droid app is free whereas onstar costs $19-$29/month. And onstar isnt going to give you traffic (or about 10 other layers) like google maps will. Living in Atlanta, traffic can mean the difference between getting home from work at 5:30pm versus 7:00pm.

It navigated me around a massive traffic congestion problem in germany like I lived ther all my life, I was totally amazed by that!
