Not to mention the whiz bang coolness of it!  Very good for demos.
I had Festival running, speaking out all stations within a few
miles, during an APRS regional get together last september.  It was
running on my truck-mount touch-screen PC in my jeep.  I don't think
I could count all the pictures and video that were taken of it.
Very good Xastir publicity.  Of course I was standing there saying
"it's all free" every few seconds as well.
