I have some questions about the GPS system. I understand that commercials are playing (just what this world needs, more advertising) on it at times. Who gets that revenue? Why isn't the revenue from the commercials offsetting the cost of the systems?

shouldn't it be up to the business owner to decide if he/she wants to accept credit cards?
In Chinatown most business are cash only. No checks, no credit cards. No cash, no goods. Chinese community would rather save the 3% that goes to the bank and not to the owner. They would rather the costs stay lower and not be raised 3% for the increased costs. Shouldn't the cabbie as a small business owner also have that same freedom of choice?
I'm not sure of who gets the revenue, in the past it was the city of NYC and not the cabbie for the Buckle Up advertising system in the mid90's.
