The Garmin 496...a teenager's review

Stick to running hotels. As a technologist, you're assessment is
embarrassing.

Matt, what the hell is wrong with you lately.

Did someone **** in your Wheaties? Something wrong with your lovelife?

For the past few weeks you have been more obnoxious than usual.

Heck, I haven't noticed any difference...

;-)

Seriously, I *know* that the 496 and PSP are not the same thing, and I
*know* that Sony sells 80 gazillion game platforms for every one of
Garmin's GPS units.

My point in posting is simply to highlight how truly crappy these
units are, and how expensive they are, comparatively speaking. For
those of you who think otherwise, get thee to your kids room, and see
what real "high tech" looks like.

Maybe the level of stupidity has grown all out of whack?

Funny thing, the rest of the market makes stuff just as crappy.

If it were so easy.....
