Is Dash Express dead? And if so, how will you know where to find the cheapest gas?
Well, kids, we had a good run. According to an anonymous tipster (and apparent Dash Express user), Dash Navigation shot out an email last night saying that service and support for Dash Express will be discontinued as of June 30, with no new subscriptions available after today. If you went for contract service (as opposed to the ol' month-by-month) you should receive a check pro-rated for your outstanding balance at some point. But then again, if that is the case, you probably received the email as well. Unless, of course, this is all a big hoax -- one that is targeted at an extremely small segment of the population and which will, ultimately effect no one. But that doesn't seem likely, does it? The company offices don't open for a couple hours yet (we know, we called) so we'll tell you if anything changes. Until then, you can read the aforementioned email after the break.
