"Smartphone Maps While Driving Banned In California"

http://j.mp/Xo5VyD  (Information Week)

   "The appeals court didn't see it that way. Its new interpretation of
    the existing law more or less outlaws practically all possible uses of
    wireless telephones in the state of California while driving a motor
    vehicle -- including the use of smartphones as navigation devices. But
    there is some leeway. The existing code, as written, implies that
    wireless telephones can still be used as navigation devices with
    hands-free listening configurations."
