I've got to go along with the rest....where's the radar detector? I can't see the advantage of a gps in that small of a place. Besides, probably 90% of us have a gps already. The hands free is ok but here again, most of us have that also.

Like the toy. The price scares me off though. Would settle for a mirror with the usual temp-compass-autodim- and throw in a radar detector. Price it around 200-250 and watch the sparks fly. Humble suggestion.

If it's just a rearview mirror overlay, forget it...every bump will have the mirror drop little by little by little...I had a larger overlay that had bluetooth built in and every single little bump had the rearview mirror facing my armrest =/
I'm concerned about its total weight as well, the heavier it is, the worse it'll hold up with our hard suspensions, it'll be a $800.00 (way overpriced IMO) rearview that doesn't provide a rear view

I think it is great. I paid about the same price for my Garmin Zumo 550 GPS for my car/motorcycle. You want shock resistant and water resistant, you gotta pay... You want GPS and Bluetooth built into your mirror you got to pay.
I am concerned about the size. I'm sure the 4 inches is diagonal measurement but still that has got to be HUGE!
Would definitely have to see one installed in a car to actually purchase. User reviews would also be great too...

For the C5 driver who has everything... Unfortunately that's not me. A radar detector in the mirror would be totally stealth unless of course the officer had a detector detector. No problem here in Indiana though - they are legal.
