Hi fellow Travelers: Tonight, I attended a cook-out about 4 and a half miles from my home. This house was like going through a maize to get to. In the past I have used Tomtom, uh, we are still looking for the house, so you can forget about that app. Next, I used Navigon, it worked fine until an update last winter broke the speech on it. Tonight, of course, I wanted to see how Sendero's Seeing Eye gps stacked up against the gps used by the cab driver(S). Sendero was right on the money. I used the default and we had absolutely no problems in finding this house. How reassuring it was to hear Charles saying "continue straight." And how nice it was again to hear I had arrived at my destination. Sendero is by far the best navigational tool I have ever seen and the fun was I used the iPad on the way down to this place and only used 6 percent of the battery, which I think is remarkable considering I had a bluetooth keyboard running. On the way home, I used the iPhone as my backpack was out of reach. Even one of the drivers was curious about this new kid on the block and for once it was cool to hear both the car gps and mine giving the exact same directions simultaneously. And the poi announcement worked somewhat and oh yes, we did get several intersections announced as well. A good time was had by all at the cookout except for my host's dog who had to be locked up because of my dog guide We won't go into that here but isn't it marvelous to relax in a cab knowing for sure you are going in the right direction?
