At least with a computer, you have a real interface and a shot at fixing it yourself. Perhaps they want feedback, to see how many people want nav?

Either way, if it does come out right, isn't it ok to wait 6 months? Wouldn't you rather see them iron it all out and do a decent to good job instead of produce crap and recall it later? I would. It's not like they're promising it for 2009, like a certain affordable muscle car with 4 seats, RWD, and a tire-shredding V8.

edit: Bad segway. But I want a black '69 Camaro or a new one that looks like it.
Is that GM kool-aid tasty? Good Lord, they could order up a few nav systems from Crutchfield and install them--in all 6 Lucernes that they'll sell--at the friggin' stealership.

It's not rocket science. Hell, it isn't even electrical engineering.

I know a lot of people who took last year's severence package who're pretty damn happy they did it while they could! GM is swirling around the bowl...
