Yes, the 'For Dummies' guys have moved away from books and produced a PND!

The picture at the bottom of the menu bar on the website bears an uncanny resemplance to the PGPSW logo!

Is that coincidence? Wink

A search in Google Images under 'gps satellite' shows this image twice on the first page of images, once on the second page, once on the fourth page and once on the fifth page (I didn't check any further):
