Good question...<<Well, how much of that market does GMGC need to capture to be considered a success in your book?>> I'd like to see "OnStar" in every GM & Toyota vehicle by the end of 2001 (or at least available to every vehicle as an option). I know that GM has already announced plans to expand the number of models that come with "OnStar." Except for the Suburban, I'm not a GM auto fan but I confess that when I started seeing "OnStar" mentioned in their commercials, GM got my attention. I think I'm not the only one who was hoping they'd put "OnStar" into more of their vehicles. I think that adding "OnStar" would not only benefit General Magic but would give GM a competitive edge, especially with women drivers. The kinds of services available with "OnStar" are designed for peace of mind in any driving conditions. autosite.com "OnStar Available Services Include Med-Net, Which Provides Personal Information Such As Physician Name, Allergies, To Hospital or Emergency Room; Accident Assistance; Automatic Notification Of Airbag Deployment; Emergency Services; Ride Assist Contacts Cab If Driver Unable To Drive; Remote Diagnostics Provides Service Guidance In Response To Vehicle Warning Lights; Roadside Assistance With Routing and Location Assistance; OnStar Convenience Services Accesses Information From 250 Business Categories; Theft Notification and Stolen Vehicle Tracking; Remote Door Unlock" Viv
