I did.  Notice, I say "did".  Yes it works, and there are quite a few 
shareware/freeware programs available for it, including the stuff from 
DeLorme and 3Com.  The problem that I have, is that I'm not sure of its 
accuracy and it is next to impossible to read (and therefore, use) while 
driving.  If you have a navigator aboard, then it would be more 
functional.  Personally, I would say skip the effort.  It isn't worth the 
trouble for one.  For two, maybe.
