Nice.

WSI downlinked weather displayed on a Garmin MX20 moving map: Will never
display the lightning data now offered by WSI, thanks to the feud between
these two companies.

Between WSI and TIS, I don't know how many more technological dead-ends I
can choose in one lifetime.


How about VHS and Beta Max all over again with the emerging Hi Def DVD
formats.

These folks love to hate each other and, in the process, screw the
consumer over until there is no tomorrow.
