Tom Tom makes one called the Rider and so does Garmin called the Zumo. They make a Garmin for the beemer snobs too, with all the pretty roundels.

I think that you're right. You can get a waterproof case for a few bucks and it will work with any GPS you buy... just a thought.

Yea that's true. When I was running my full audio set-up, it was convenient for the GPS to play music as well. If you figure something out let me know too! My problems have always been; signal priority, cross-talk and feedback. I'm not an engineer so I could never get proper priority protocols established. I want the radar detector > phone > GPS with total elimination of previous signals and resumption after priority signal. That's what you gain with the "box" units.
