Had a Quest and now a Quest II. I was hoping the Quest II would give me close to the same results of Mapquest. And keep me on the Interstate instead of going though 60 miles of traffic lights. I live next the Washington, DC beltway and work on the opposite side of the beltway. Both Quests route me though the middle of DC. I called Garmin tech support and am convinced they are IDIOTS! I guess Garmin should notify www.dot.gov that they can shutdown the beltway, it's not needed any longer. The shortest distance is not the fast route. When I travel I print off the mapquest directions and ignore the Quest II when it's about to do something STUPID and let it recalculate until it gets it right! Garmin should hire some of the Mapquest programmers.
HP's Jon Rubenstein told us that his company wanted to veer in a new direction, and veer it surely did -- the HP Veer 4G will arguably be the smallest fully-functional smartphone on the market when it goes on sale May 15th.
