Caden: Check <a href="http://www.twice.com/article/CA6555529.html" rel="nofollow">the article.</a> $129 and shipping this month (May). But they don't have photos or a detailed description so I don't know if it is one of the flexible neck mounts or a fixed mount, etc. The 'car mount' <i>is</i> the cradle with the GPS receiver, etc. Andrew: Good point, I would hope they allow music playback via the transmitter. I wonder if they disable video playback when the GPS detects the car is in motion - personally I think that's a good idea. Mark: “They can also come via the 605’s speaker.”

I have to admit that at least would be a plus for me. Well at least if there is an FM Transmitter it could possibly eliminate the need for a separate one for audio playback.

Tuning your car radio to listen to turn-by-turn directions sounds like overkill! I would hope you could use the 605’s speaker.
