Earphones may be legal where you drive, but strictly verboten in
California (except a single earbud for Bluetooth or hands-free cell
phone).  And the cops/CHP are on a ramped-up rampaging enforcement for
the past few weeks writing up cell phone users not using hands-free.

Driver(s) Beware :)

FWIW & YMMV

I use the iPhone gps professionally (maps and guidebooks and the like) and I have replaced my garmin (good riddance to them and their ilk), tomtom, camera, phone and iPod with this device. The integration is phenomenal; the photos are geotagged so you can see where you took them on a map.

I like the way I can drive along with Rhe phone on a windshield mount using the earphones listening to a book or music. When a turn comes up, the music is turned down and a voice comes on and announces the turn, then the music resumes.
