Are there any good GPS Nav systems with dashcam functionality? I think Garmin used to make one but can't find it.
It's such an obvious idea, not sure why we aren't seeing more of such models.
Posted this in another comment too... but here we go:
How is this any worse than all the cellphones/laptops/desktops/tablets with mics and cameras? Won't a simple software update to them enable the exact same thing? Okay, most laptop and desktop cams have a hardwired light that turns on, but almost all phones and tablets dont. How is the Xbox One any worse?
Not sure I am getting you, how is this any worse than all the cellphones/laptops/desktops/tablets with mics and cameras? Won't a simple software update to them enable the exact same thing?

Why is the Xbox One being singled out here?
And yet, Mac sales are either down or flat. But yes, iPad sales are up.
It always amazes me how many people actually think that the Xbox is a highly profitable endeavor for Microsoft. While it has turned profitable recently, the Entertainment & Devices Division (where XBox is accounted for) is only mildly profitable. Nowhere near the profit rate of Microsoft's enterprise and desktop cash-cows. It is a stretch to call the Xbox a fiscal "success", at best one could now say it is not "money-losing". It is highly unlikely that Microsoft could expand the revenues and margins of EDD into a company-sustaining business.
That is because the division includes Windows Phone which isn't making much profit right now, not to mention $250 million of cash payments to Nokia every quarter cutting into the profit.
Even with that, they still make a tidy profit.
The EDD reported revenue of $2.53 billion, a 56 percent increase over the $1.61 billion reported during the same period last year. The company also cited a "video game deferral" of $380 million – an advance on the launch of Halo 4, according to Gamasutra – effectively lowering revenues to $2.15 billion. Even so, the EDD racked up an operating income of $342 million, Xbox Live subscriptions rose, however, as did Xbox Live revenue. Specifically, Xbox Live membership grew 18 percent and now totals 46 million members.
So when people say the Xbox is highly profitable, they're right. And EDD would do very well on it's own, even with Windows Phone, with a profit of $342 million just in one quarter. Only on Slashdot does someone think a hypothetical company that makes >1billion profit in a year is not "sustaining".
Please produce for our enjoyment those real numbers that evil Google is hiding from us.
Seven.
Really, where are the numbers? Why is Google hiding the real numbers just like they do for the badly selling Chromebooks? They do release numbers(see Android activations) if they are good, so they must be bad. Even Microsoft has come
I think the "aren't sharing the details" refers to sharing details with the public till Apple rolls out a fix, not Apple.
The point of Gmail is to get you signed into Google.com so that they can track your search keywords across different machines to show ads related to them. e.g. at home and work.

What serious disasters? Do you have any references that of any, especially ones that say it was because of

Yet Apple gets a free pass on iPads, same with firms such as Motorola. How much is WindowsRT selling and how much of a threat is it to freedom compared to the iPad?
N'mind that they've been criminally lax in improving their software

Right after they arrest Android developers for the huge malware problem on Android, and then Apple developers.

"Newly Discovered Android Malware Was Downloaded Millions Of Times"
http://techcrunch.com/2013/04/20/newly-discovered-android-malware-was-downloaded-millions-of-times/
Last week, American security researcher Jacob Appelbaum found that malware on an Angolan human-rights activist's Apple laptop was "signed" with a legitimate Apple developer ID, allowing it to slip past Apple's baked-in Gatekeeper security software. A new and unusually sneaky piece of Mac malware, discovered last week, has been linked to a larger online espionage campaign being waged from India.
The campaign, dubbed "HangOver" after a text string in the malware code, appears to be based in India and focuses on stealing industrial secrets from companies all over the world.
