CES: Garmin's Speech Recognition GPS

I'm in Las Vegas at the big Consumer Electronics Show. I have my hiking shoes on and mapped out a route to a dozen must-see products.

High on my list is a Garmin's new 800 series GPS. It's got speech recognition -- where's the nearest Costco? -- and a connection to MSN Direct for traffic info, fuel prices, movie listings, and other info.

I'll have more details once I get my hands on one, but in the meantime, check it out in this video. And of course, my associate, Denny Arar, scooped me and had a report of her trip from the airport in a Garmin-laden limo. Read it in Garmin's Hands-Free Car GPS.
