"With the ELEMNT you do have to plan ahead a bit on where you’re going, as you can’t just do it on the fly – such as entering an address. The ELEMNT gives you a breadcrumb trail to follow, and then notifies you if you’re off-course. It also will give you turn by turn navigation for apps/routes that support it."
So, it could be useful for audax but less useful if you need to find a bike shop, or want to detour to a town or Services or something along the way.
I'm gonna read into this more, as since it's 100% wireless, it could indicated that you just need to create a route on your phone instead of the ELEMNT.
edit; so far, vague mention of using Strava to download route to the ELEMNT.
