doesn’t look THAT different from a basic GPS
you know what’d be nice? laser beams! make it so if you honk your horn, laser beams will be fired to the nearest car! thats super awesome! and link it up with multiple other iphones on the same road and keep track of frags! yeah! and and if there’s more iphone in the car, they can use it as as a a turret! laser beam turrets!
That’s realtime video on the screen, dumbass.
I’m having a hard time seeing the point of this. It just seems to add a lot of redundant information and annoying warnings to the everyday driving experience.
So it tells you what lane you’re in.
And it tells you if there is a vehicle in front of you.
Isn’t that why we have eyes????????
it doesnt matter about the redundancy of the info it gives you, this app is awesome that shows you there is no limit to the things you can do with the iphone. Why not add maps to this? That way its a gps with real time video, thatd be frickin awesome
