Magellan suspends development on Maestro Elite 5340 connected GPS

First comes the fallout at Dash, and now this. Apparently GPS
manufacturers are finally caving to the realization that the vast
majority doesn't want yet another monthly fee tacked on in the form of
a connected GPS -- particularly when so many of the non-connected
navigators work so well. TWICE has it that Magellan has "suspended
development" on its Maestro Elite 5340 with Google Local search,
noting that even though it "believes there is great promise in
connected navigation, in the near term, consumers have shown an
unwillingness to pay a steep price for PNDs, especially with the
recent economic downturns." If you'll recall, we actually toyed with
this very unit back at CES, and sadly, it seems those hands-on shots
are as close as any citizen outside of the company will ever get to
it.
