Aug. 14, 2006 - GPS

globe on the brain

My friend Eric (a REALTOR®)  is directionally challenged. I have had clients make fun of me for  going in circles..and I ususally have a pretty good sense of direction (I don't know right from left... which can cause problems... but during the day with the  sun shining I amaze myself.. and some clients....) I wonder what Eric's client's think when he is going in circles and calling me for directions.  When I see his cell number come up on my desk phone I want to answer it  "Eric's GPS."   At a Tech Users Forum presentation for the new Verizon phones with GPS, I thought of Eric immediately.  Every time I see the Verizon commercial of the man looking for a phone with that feature  and the lady says something like "Sir this is a hardware store!"  I think of Eric.

Transform your Treo™ smartphone into the ultimate navigation solution. Whether you're driving to a new destination, or strolling through an unfamiliar city, the Palm® GPS Navigator Smartphone Edition helps you relax and enjoy the scenery, knowing you'll reach your destination. The voice-guided, turn-by-turn directions let you keep your eyes where they belong - on the road.

Even if I am relatively good with directions I want GPS. Doesn't everyone?   I want a Smart Phone too... my cell is a couple of years old... I thought wow... what a deal...then I read 'transform your Treo'  and realized the price is just the GPS Navigator for the cell phone.  Maybe I'll just shave my head and tatto maps on it...

Posted by Millington Realtor

That's what I'm afraid of. I want to be smart while I'm out showing houses! There's nothing more embarassing than getting lost.  I'm still a little technology challenged so I want something easy to use yet not cost-prohibitive. Any suggestions?
