Yesterday I did a test where I was plugged up into my car radio, was running iguidance, and using Tracky in the background to log coordinates to a file and also to upload to the web my current condition. I was also playing music with S2P. It did pretty well for the first 20 minutes, but then I started switching between the programs and iguidance started lagging really badly. I closed tracky, and tried again and everything was fine. It was cool because when I would approach a turn, the music would go to half volume and iguidance would say take a right onto soand so, even with the music screen up
