I bet you didn’t know that there are probably more people in Maryland using GPS then in the state you are in, or that Wal-Mart is the most searched for destination while people are on the road with Starbucks coming in at number two.
The data also shows that Pizza was the number one food searched, residents in Chicago leading the way in that category, but those of us i New York City preferred Chinese food which was the second most searched food. As if we need a GPS to find a Chinese restaurant. There is one on every corner out here.
Telenav gathered he data during December 2009, so that could explain why Wal-Mart is number one on the most searched for destination, it would be interesting to see where it ranks when averaging a years worth of data.

Just before my trip to the Mobile World Congress, FedEx dropped off the Toshiba Satellite A505. A gorgeous looking notebook with a 16” HD TrueBrite display, Nvidia GeForce GPU, Harman/Kradon Speakers with Dolby and an Intel core i7 processor to power it up.
The system is beautiful in itself; it has a nice looking paint job with silver trim and when you open her up and see the huge 16 inch wide-screen monitor it will make you drool. It’s probably one of the most beautiful notebooks I have seen in a while.
I took the A505 with me to Barcelona Spain for the Mobile World Congress, as I planned to take loads of pictures, some videos and just browse the web while I was there and needed something that could handle the workload I expected to have. So I figured what better way to review a notebook than to put it to some hard core use at a convention in another country.
