Embedded maps simple is memory space with a pre-loaded map on it so it does not need the map in your phone. That memory space could be in the gauge or in an external module that also contains a 2 way data radio. The complexity of the radio and antenna will make it pricy. I hope I am wrong and you are right though.No it would not be expensive, the phone is a radio device and has buddy tracking with cell service.
Who knows if the embedded maps module that was leaked doesn’t have the buddy tracking in it like the phone, and that’s what’s being worked on. So the switch is from the phone to a module. The only software update I see if for the go app in the gauge for use with the module.
