Car Forum / Toyota / Toyota Cars / September 200710 Ways to Use Your New GPS
3. Set notifications for your travel route- No more missing an exit on a freeway, and then taking a 3-mile detour! Your GPS navigator can guide you along the way so that you don't miss any turns or highway exits... http://personaltechinfo.googlepages.com/10_ways_to_use_your_new_gps > 3.

You should see my long distance driving rig. Magellan GPS on a windshield mount connected via USB to my laptop running DeLorme Street Atlas USA and synced to the Magellan. Hell my program talks to me and I can ask it where the hell I am or how much father to the next stop. Keeps me awake....  SignatureScott in Florida > >> > 3.

Wouldn't it be cool to have the computer drive the car. All the driver would have to do is sit back and monitor the instruments, LOL. I was looking at GPS for jogging. They have the things you can wear like a wristwatch, and it will tell distance and bunch of other stuff. About a $150. -- I got the Mio C310x $199 GPS (on sale) Jan 07, its designed for the car, but it fits in your pocket easily when I walk. In the options, I can select car, pedestrian, or bus route (never tried bus though). It has a built in MP3 player and some websites teach you to hack the GPS inorder to play video files loaded on a memory card, never tried to hack it. I have thomas guide map, it costs me about $20 and thats for Los Angeles alone and another $20 for the California Atlas. At $199, I get a GPS with maps for all states and Canada that fits on my pocket. > I was looking at GPS for jogging.

You mean it doesn't? I hit cruise and read the paper....LOL >I was looking at GPS for jogging.

I run a 10 minute mile when I feel up to it, so a little bit of math will tell me how far I ran, LOL... -- >Wouldn't it be cool to have the computer drive the car.

It's simply amazing how we all didn't get lost many, many times over the years. Now, many dumb down, relying on ANYTHING else, rather than their own brain. Its all about technology, what do you have against it? you dont have a mobile phone and stick to phone booths, do you still use a black and white TV? or using a typewriter. Face it those things make peoples lives better. Its not dumb to use them What you said on an earlier post goes back to you... You belong to the stone age! > > -- > > Excellent comment.

Then there will be no more accusing us guys of things that could never happen like getting lost, or (oh my god ) needing to ask someone for directions. LOL... I would be so busted Dan |
