What does /out/ make of this thing?
Useful for innawoods or dead weight?

I don't see this replacing a paper map and compass, but I think it could damn sure come in handy.

some features:
>GPS (GLONASS and WAAS)
HOLY FUCK RUSSIAN GPS!

>Weather sensors
Seem rather useless to me

>FRS, GMRS and MURS Radio
mite b kewl depends on where you are

> AM/FM/SW/LW Tuner
meh

>Uses Andriod apps plus reads ebook formats
cool

>Solar charger
cool

Also has some other features I didn't list.
Should I buy in before it's even proven tech?
