I've been fascinated by GPS technology since I first tried one of the early handheld receivers. It was slow, and the screen was gray and small, but it was still a marvel. Today, mobile navigation is a rapidly growing, multi-billion-dollar market, and location-aware technology is finding its way into a wide range of products. It's second nature for me to look at technology from the consumer's point of view.
