Carry two devices versus carrying one. Sure you can hide the GPS unit in your car though that means finding somewhere to put it. Most of the time it's advised that you hide everything (power cables, mounts, etc..) since if thieves find a GPS mount they're more likely to smash your car's window to take it.

yes, I think it was worth the money.
Cold GPS fix (never used with Ovi maps) was WAY LESS than 5 seconds INSIDE my house!
The maps are very new (better than TomTom maps, I know that, because in my neighbourhood they are bulding new streets). And yes you're right, with the GPS system, but I bought the N900, so why buy another hardware system?
