Apple Thoughts: CES 2011: Cobra and the iRadar

"We liked the idea of the iRadar when we first heard about it, and Cobra put the device front and center at its CES 2011 booth (well, right next to the girls in skimpy police uniforms). The iRadar is a radar detector that hooks right up to Cobra's official iPhone app, and it will not only alert you when you see speed radar units out on the road, but it will also tune in to two different services."

Slick interface that will alert you to speed traps that other iRadar owners have driven through, all without any intervention on your part. It also keeps a list of red light cameras and speed traps in it's database that will alert you should you venture into any of these territories. The retail price is set to be $129.00 USD for the radar detector and the software is free, since they figure you are helping them provide a service to the other owners I suppose. Just the distraction you need right? Who knows, it might just pay for itself in one use. You can find out more about it at the Cobra site.
