I agree with the cell phone thing for certain cases, and the XMotion  
Drive app for iPhone is exceptional. The caveat is if you get a call  
(even if you don't answer) near a turn you may miss a beat.

That said, I belive Bob to be looking for something with a larger  
screen. I've been looking a bit too and believe I would buy the most  
expensive TomTom I could afford at the time.
