    Acura uses NavTraffic. Why not just get a good WiFi card and connect to sigalert to grab all the traffic data?

    That's why we're hoping a software can get TMC data from either the radio or somewere else.

    GPS/TMC Data

    Guys,

    Just ing and found this

    It looks like one already exists in the UK. You just need a GPS/TMC receiver

    Edit: This one is for the pocket PC

    From the web site on XMRadio.com it looks like it's using 2 of the XM Channels, to broadcast the traffic info... the key would be to find out if our tuners can tune to those channels, and if so, if we can demodulate the signal to be able to get traffic data from it... the rest would be adding markers to routis or Iguidance to indicate congestion.... (Just got my Radio, waiting for the cable, and Optical adapter)
