Luxury Electronics: As long as the road is in
North America, getting lost while driving will not
happen if there is a StreetPilot in the vehicle. This
GPS-satellite-navigational system, which is no larger
than a baseball, is guaranteed to always pitch
straight info to drivers. Plus it can easily be
removed from one vehicle and placed in another, as it
securely attaches to windshields with a suction cup.
It is a perfect gift for the soon-to-be rich student,
or an ideal addition to the classic car of a bygone
era.
The StreetPilot i5 comes equipped with detailed maps
of North America, which includes Canada, U.S., Puerto
Rico and Mexico. The little dynamo features 3-D map
graphics and turn-by-turn vocal directions. And if a
turn is missed, a voice prompt from the unit's
built-in speaker puts the driver back on course.
Garmin, which is the maker of the StreetPilot, makes
the deal even sweeter by offering points-of-interest
(POI)
downloadable software. Info such as gas stations,
hotels, restaurants, ATMs, and speed-limit warnings
are available throughout the continent. Two AA
batteries or a 12-volt adapter power the unit.
The StreetPilot i5 is an out-of-the-box-ready
GPS-satellite-navigational system with zero fuss or
muss.
