Angelo, can we buy you a clue? The fact that Orbi has a product (a) does not mean that product is selling in any quantity (b) does not mean that product is best and (c) in this case, means Microsoft knew about it before selecting Trimble GPS instead. The Microsoft/Trimble alliance (with a good chance of an Intel/Trimble deal to follow) means that Orbi car navigation is about to be shut out of the mass market. Trimble has more competition from Japanese companies and Motorola than from Orbi's Pathmaster.
