Okay 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.




Fair enough @ TomTom

Sure, I expect if you drive a lot, in traffic hotspots, with a lot of other Dash users, it's worth it.
