New Magellan GPS

There are generally quite a few topic in here on GPS's and how to select your own route for them. Just today I got an e-mail from Magellan about a new Smart GPS. In the video that accompanied the e-mail it said you can do your route planning on your computer, tablet, or smart phone, and then wirelessly sink it to your GPS. (snip, snip)

I think this is the device msmith mentioned: Magellan SmartGPS. The idea of having advertisements and "valuable social information" inflicted on me while I drive sounds like the 5th circle of hell, but the idea of wireless connectivity between the GPS and PC sounds like an idea whose time has come. Garmin has had traffic and weather updates via a wireless connection to a phone or tablet data service. Now Magellan has gone further. Maybe this is the start of something.

Thanks for posting.
