It is already a multi-billion dollar network that the US gov't (and its many taxpayers) have created and maintained. It is FREE to use anywhere on earth. By including some relatively simple (and cheap) hardware and software it would add a lot to our computer experience... slapping a bigger hard drive in an ipod is not innovation. Adding GPS would be! :) Apple, Mirosoft and other computer makers have been stupid when it comes to GPS.

A GPS accessory adapter for the new iPod would be nice. ASfter the year long hosing we got ftom Garmin on “Mac compatable” software I don’t expect anyone other than AAPL to come to the rescue.

To be fair, maybe it’s more useful for the MacBook line, but I think there are uses for it in desktop systems as well - maybe make it an option for these models…?
