Getting back on track

by Bonnie Cha

Eeeesssshhhh. So, umm, it's been a while since my last post and for that, I offer you my sincerest apologies. You see, it's been a little cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs for me these past several months. For those of you who don't know, I also cover smartphones for CNET, and with the holiday shopping season fast approaching, the cell phone manufacturers are unleashing a storm of new products--all at once. Guh. Seriously, my cube is a fire hazard with all the phones I have plugged into the power strip. Anyway, amid the rush to get through all those reviews, I've neglected my blog BUT not that I'm using that as an excuse. I just wanted to let you know that I'm getting back on track and will do a better job of keeping you informed of GPS trends, news, and more, so I'll be talking to you soon.

Bonnie Cha is a senior editor for CNET, covering smartphones and GPS. When she's not testing the latest gadgets, you can find her chasing after her crazy lab or surfing in the chilly waters of Northern California. E-mail Bonnie.

I am attempting to buy a GPS system for my son in law for Xmas. They live in Phoenix and their business requires them to go to different wedding venues. He is very techno savy, but does not need a lot of extras. Also lots of sun, so wash out on the screen is important. Any suggestions?
