I would add that gprs is the only way to have a data link on a speed >
50 km/h...
And reporting stuff like average speed would be only a few ko !

My nav system knows the road type (primary, secondary, etc.) and then
has settable speeds based on the type - 65 mph primary, 50mph
secondary, etc.
'Good enough' estimate, but the realtime traffic/weather seems very
useful. This is doable using traffic & weather data from existing
services that c

The issue with traffic movements is you really need the cell tower
movement information from carriers, without this these traffic flows are
at best an estimation.
As for openmoko:
What about, in car GPS mode, reporting unusual speed fluctuations?
Ex: you're on a 130 km/h road, and your gps rep
