Not yet, as far as I know. My guess would be that perhaps CoPilot by ALK may be one of the first ones to start introducing traffic implementation. I think the feature is already built in, but not enabled yet in the North American version of CoPilot. I believe ALK does have a laptop version of CoPilot for truckers which may already use traffic info in a very limited area (one state, perhaps).

FYI, recently released version of Microsoft on-line service, Windows Live Local ( http://local.live.com ), is capable of displaying traffic info for some highways in several US markets.

iGuidance has had weather over a year, since version 2.1 I believe.
