Tricks of the Entunes masters.

So you're in Starbucks on your iPad planning your Spring ski trip to Revelstoke. After much internet search and investigation, you find that cool little B&B plus four other stops you want to make on the 2,000 mile trip in your snow Prius.

You log on to Entunes on your iPad while you get jacked up on your 10th latte, you save the destinations in Entunes and off you go.

When you get in the car, you make your Entunes internet connection open Nav and tell it to navigate to Saved Locations. It sucks the saved locations out of Entunes to the Nav and stores them on the Prius memory and says "Go that away".

Also works for any other spot you find on your various internet surfing while you are supposed to be working, save it to your Entunes account and it's available to you in the car.

 

I broke down and added the "Personal Hotspot Tethering" from ATT for an extra $20 a month so I can do the Bluetooth internet connection to the Prius without the cable.

I want traffic every day for my commute and, like you, don't want to be putzing around with cables etc.

Entunes stores the addresses for you so you can a weekly data dump. And over time, you should be storing your favorites anyway.

It is fun to do a web search with Bing (which is somewhat lame search engine vs. Google) and then hit "Navigate" to the spot or call them. That, plus traffic interface, is the key to having a internet connection for the car nav for me.

 

Looks like it.
