So I went with Costco Auto Program finally.But I still did not have the greatest experience as I have documented in my blog post .In todays world of internet etc for new cars , we should be able to know the price which we are going to pay upfront, it is not rocket science. Disclaimer : I am in no way related to costco or any of their affiliates.

  7. Downloads via alternate method on Grokking Knoppix · · Score: 4, Informative

    In order to reduce the slashdot effect on the author's server please consider downloading via coral links or via p2p networks like edonkey/gnutella.

  9. None available!!!!! on Trip Planning Software for Linux? · · Score: 1

    After I bought my GPS mouse receiver I searched a lot about mapping software which I could use for trip-planning ,navigation etc under GNU/Linux.
    But there are none available which will run natively in GNU/Linux.
    You will find a lot of software which can read the output from the GPS and show your position.There are open-source projects which can even show your location on the maps ,but the maps do not have Street names.

    So the thing which is missing is lack of a mapping software that is a software which has maps of whole of North America with Street Addresses/POI etc.
    Also the software needs to have features like voice recognition,auto-routing etc.
    I wish Delorme or someone would port their software to GNU/Linux.

  11. BU-303 works with Debian on GPS and Portability? · · Score: 3, Informative

    I have the generic model BU303 USB GPS receiver which you can buy from ebay for around 40 - 60 bucks.The guy ships from hong kong.
    It readily works with my debian box.
    The mapping software available for GNU/Linux is non existent.I know http://www.gpsdrive.cc/index.shtml(GPS drive) is available but it does not have features like auto-routing/street -level maps which are absolutely essential for driving.
