Dec. 27, 2006 - Another Toy In The e-PROŽ Arsenal
As I am sure many of you know I hold the e-PRO® designation. For those of you who don't know what that is here is a little link.
Because of all the kind and wonderful folks who gave me gift cards for my birthday and Christmas I was able to add another great tool to my business arsenal. I am now the proud owner of a Garmin® StreetPilot® c550. No more trying to read MapQuest directions while navigating in unfamiliar areas. No more wearing a blinking blue light on my left ear as I drive around. No more envying my friend Dennis who drives a Mercedes SUV with an in dash GPS.
This thing is great. It will find a route to whatever destination I ask it for as long as it's in the United States, Canada or Puerto Rico. It has traffic and weather alerts and will reroute me around any trouble spots. It has bluetooth and is compatible with my cell phone, turning my whole car into a rolling phone. One of the coolest things about that is, I can locate a point of interest (restaurant, shop, hotel/motel, etc.) and press call and it dials the place up because the points of interest are complete with phone numbers. Now I can call ahead with any questions I may have.
So, is this new tool/toy going to make me a better REALTOR®? I say yes, but that's just my not so humble opinion. I tell you what, give call and hire me to do a piece of work for you. That way we will know for sure.
As always, if you have found yourself receiving my blog postings via e-mail, it is because I have either blogged about you personally, blogged about something I know is of interest to you, or I consider you to be a person of deep thinking and intellect and I would love to have you occasionally commenting on my blog. If you would like to be removed from the list simply send me an e-mail saying so.
