HC -- Thanks for the info. Looks like the national rollout is finally ramping up. BTW, a friend of mine just bought a new Saab (very nice car) and took me for a spin. He demonstrated OnStar for me (the buttons are on the dash just to the left of the radio/stereo) . . . just took a few seconds to patch into "Leonard" who said, Good afternoon, Mr. Jones. How can I help you?" My friend responded that we were just testing out the system and we wanted to know our location. Leonard immediately replied that we were on Market Street coming up on Broadway -- which is exactly where we were. I know everyone realizes that the OnStar/GPS system has this pinpoint locator accuracy, but it's nonetheless impressive to witness it firsthand. Anyway, my buddy asked his salesman when PC/VA would be available here in the Midwest, and was told "soon." Sounds like the NOC is gonna get busier in the months ahead.
