iPhone anti-glare case (or alternative ideas)

[Gone in 60]

Gold and Empty, I get what you're saying. This might help, might not, but here's what I do. I use both Google Maps and Waze.

Google Maps is my stripped-down mapping. Suggestions for re-routes are turned off, so there's no two-way communication - I just listen to where I'm supposed to turn, and I'm not worried about having to talk back to my phone or distractions. Also, I like the lay of the land as well. Before I leave for somewhere I've never been, I'll look at the route overview on my phone (just like looking at a paper map), so that I know what my estimated travel time and arrival time will be (good for client visits, as I can say "I'm on a motorcycle, so I can't communicate en-route, but I'll be at your office at about 3:15). Also, I can make a mental picture of the overview, so I can anticipate where I'm going to be turning: ie - about three miles up, right, four miles, left, etc. That way, I'm ready when the voice tells me I've got a turn coming up. Easy Peasy.

If I'm in my car, I'm typically travelling somewhere far or with my wife, and I'll use Waze, with all the bells and whistles turned on. My head might not be on as much of a swivel in the car, so getting "hey, cop up ahead" warnings are nice, and if it says "hey, I found a quicker route, tap to take it", my wife or I can tap on it. As with Google Maps, Waze gives a good route overview before you start, so you get the overall "looking at a map" effect.
