GPS devices that talk back

by Wayne Cunningham


Your car may not answer when you talk to it, but we've got four GPS devices that will. The latest, cutting-edge GPS devices not only guide you to destinations and show you traffic conditions, but also respond to voice commands. You can fit your car out like the Knight Industries Two Thousand with one of these devices. They'll help you get where you're going, but they won't make your car bulletproof.

See four GPS devices you can talk to.

Nor will it make your car 'jump' or driver itself like KITT did.

Just purchased the Pharos Drive GPS 200 and have found it to be virtually flawless. This GPS device sold for about $99.00 after two rebates. It speaks clearly and succinctly and the graphics are 1st class, as they are displayed on the 4 inch screen. Very little set-up other than to attach the holder via suction cup to the windshield, plug it in and fire it up. The rest was as simple as listening to a few prompts. It was extremely accurate for it's inaugural journey from my place of business to my front door, about seven miles away but seven miles of country roads. Could not be more pleased.
