news
I believe it was GM. It was reported back in June. Garmin's stock took a

hit
after the announcement, since the auto sector represents the greatest
revenue growth potential for GPS equipment makers...

Aviation, as we all know, is a very small, niche market compared to the

auto
sector.

[snip]
Garmin lost a major auto contract recently because of their high

pricing
structure. Don't know how that's going to effect their business model,

but
I
hope they refocus on their core aviation market.

I'm waiting.

What auto maker was that?


Does anyone know who did get the contract?

Alpine got some Chrysler business but it was for a different product that
what Garmin was working on.
