The OR user names - Waze user names I know are below. Please post your Waze name if you decide to join the cool kids...

There are a number of other members in the Waze group, but I don't know their OR user names...

Mods, sticky please?

I doubt names display unless Waze is on.

Have had Wase for a while. Used more in Jeep than bike.

Normally have Waze off, and sometimes GPS off too.

It will drain power and data faster.

I use the auto power plug all the time.

Now I suppose I have to find a bike mount for the droidx.

The one in the Jeep is made from a binder clip, a wood pencil, and two rubber bands. Works great. Free.

And noticed sometimes trouble capturing GPS on start of Waze,

I toss it on the dash in the front windshield and it usually connects ok.

Waze is way more fun than a TomTom or other gps, and works pretty much just as good.

I've made various mounts, and used tank bags also.

But I'm too far sighted to even see the stupid screen,

nor see it in bright sun light. So I pretty much just don't bother with it.

I do occasionally set up the audio directions for the headphones.

That works when needing navigation on the move.
