Because my phone is used for other things on long drives, so I like having a dedicated devices that's just GPS. It's on a suction cup on the car and stays there - I don't take it in the house with me.

Unlike a phone, you also don't need a data connection to navigate anywhere in North America.

I may have to buy a cheap phone that does nothing except Google maps, and leave it in the car (but fear of thieves means I can't leave it on the windshield all the time, unlike a GPS which no one seems to steal anymore).

Good job killing your market TomTom - why would anyone buy a device from you ever again?

I actually have a built-in device in the car, but I don't use it, and instead use the TomTom device because the car one blocks input if the car is in motion. I guess whoever made it has never driven with a passenger.
