May 2 2008Analog GPS Unit Is Just A Piece Of Paper
In this day of Garmin, TomTom, and Magellan GPS navigation systems, it's good to see an analog alternative to the digital market. And here it is, the Paper GPS system. As you can see it's a pad of paper that has little arrows to circle and boxes to write directions and mileage between turns. Each pad costs $6.50 and makes a great gift. You should have seen the look on my girlfriend's face when I told her I got her a GPS navigation system for her birthday! She was so freaking excited (she gets lost easily). Then she opens the box and it's a pad of this paper. Oh man, I laughed my ass off. Unfortunately she didn't have too much trouble finding her way to the door, and, that night, some other dude's bed.
paper gps won't get you lost (if you write good directions) [technabob]

Sooo, a piece of paper that you write directions on! How clever!
Clever like an assclown! Ba, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ho, He, He *wipes tear*

Garmin, not to be confused with German...you know, wouldn't want to discuss the wars.
"You started it!"
"I did not!"
"Yes you did! You invaded Poland!"
Hahahahahaha, I love British humor. (That was Fawlty Towers by the way.)
