I've been expecting this technology for a couple years now. The next step is community driven Wiki style "tours"--there are far too many places to be covered by any one company. Personalization is another key. Whether you're interested in photography, flowers, golf, or food you ought to be able to get running commentary as you drive down the road.
There are a million useful ways to integrate GPS with other technology. We've only scratched the surface.
There is already a wiki-style gps tour guide web site. Check out http://www.geovative.com where you can create your own tours with audio, image, and text descriptions and then download it into your GPS device!

Thanks, it looks interesting. I think this is the first time I've ever gotten a reply to a post I made 7 months ago. ;)
