Its funny - I had no problem ordering the satnav option in the wife's new car but can't bring myself to pay $300-400 for a standalone GPS.

Partly because my next cellphone will have GPS nav anyway, so why bother with a separate GPS that will eventually get stolen from my car, leaving me with a shattered window as a bonus.

And partly because it seems overpriced. The GPS chipset is appx $20, the processor appx $10, the touchscreen $10-20, the flash memory $20, etc etc - basically it seems like the thing should cost a lot less, darn it.

In Europe there will be 99 euro models this year, so someone can make and sell them at a profit for $150.
