That's like saying screwdrivers and knives are in decline because of
Swiss Army knives.

I doubt if either company is going to tank soon, but it's sort of like being
in the horseshoe business with Ford building the model T plant down the

Stand along GPS/mapping units aren't in the same category as buggy

try to do everything under the sun iPads.
