This feature would be a great retrofit if possible.

I don't know why you would want it. I keep mine off. The auto-route thing is so horrible in the NY area it had me driving in circles for 2 hours one time.
I dont know if it works any better in smaller metros, but it totally blows around NY/NJ

Yeah, me too. I use my Verizon phone with Navigator 4.1.1 to decide which is the best way to go. Is this like the Bluetooth issue we had in 2004 where pharding finally found a dealer willing to figure it out?

It is a great feature - not for the re-routing, but for letting you know that you have traffic up ahead. Unfortunately a retrofit is probably not going to happen.
