Think you’ve got more street smarts than the Dash Express GPS? You can now prove you mettle thanks to the June 2008 update for the Internet-connected navigational device. I’ve read some reports from Dash users that the re-routing sometimes doesn’t make sense, so obviously those folks have a little local knowledge of their own. The new MyRoute feature leverages those preferred routes and shortcuts so the device will actually learn from them for future use. Hey, technology is great but a little human intervention can make a good thing better, right?

Also included in this software update is a "Search along route" function and various performance enhancements including the FasterFind feature powered by SiRFInstantFix technology. The updated Dash will download location information at regular intervals to assist with GPS fixes in areas of low signal.
