As far as I know, the Kapten is only available in France and supposedly in Spain in the future.
Does anyone have any information about an English speaking model? Mike At 05:34 PM 6/29/2009, you wrote:
Hello everyone. Here is a very brief discription about the Kapten Take care. CherrylWhile most people already find it hard enough to read a road map and have to rely on something more advanced like a multimedia interface on a GPS navigation system to help them get around, the Kapsys Kapten GPS navigation system requires one to really sharpen up one's listening skills since it does not come with a single pixel of display. Yes sir, instructions are belted out using only voice recognition and text-to-speech capability. I suppose this could be used while driving, but it works best when walking, measuring a highly portable 74mm x 44mm x 13mm while weighing just 50 grams. Inside you will find a SiRFStar III GPS chipset and 4GB of internal memory. The Kapsys Kapten will be out in the middle of next month for approximately 150?.----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Noseworthy" <jim.noseworthy@xxxxxxxxxx>To: <gps-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, June 29, 2009 5:14 PM Subject: [gps-talkusers] Re: New accessible GPS.Flor: Thanks all over the place.
