No, this is for sharing a GPS connection between two computers in the same car. I'll post a video on how you would actually use this after IDF ends on the 28th.

Tracking is not going to be in this update.

I don't think this will give a QWERTY keyboard, just give you the ability to make one.
That is, assuming I read it correctly.

I don't think that SD is going to accept the liability if they do such a thing.
You're just going to have to deal with it, I believe.

Seriously... There's far too much whining about "I can't do this" and "I can't do that" because of the safety restrictions. You obviously don't understand the reasoning behind this decision, so let me spell it out for you:

If there were no restrictions on what you could do while driving, then someone would get into an accident while performing some function in StreetDeck and get seriously hurt or killed. Then there would be a lawsuit, and a jury would find StreetDeck liable. They would go broke, and the development of the software would cease. It's also very possible that the forums would get closed because the lawsuit would drain all resources, including the ability to host these forums.
It would also devastate this community and this hobby in general. You could expect to see legislation passed that would outlaw PCs in your vehicles, so your GPS navigation system and huge music library that you're using would be criminal.

Is it inconvenient? Sure, it is.
I'd rather have a legal setup that's inconvenient than an illegal one regardless of convenience level.
