Q: She has a very soothing and patient voice.
A: Dora the Explorer-after all you have determined gender, temperament and usefulness :)
I am traveling from Boston to NY, the rent a car company offer this brands (Garmin, Tom Tom or Magellan) Which is easier to use or better.
I never use a GPS navigation before, and because my trip is almost 4 hours, I don’t want to get lose or use a system that will be complicated or non...
We've been using Google's voice-guided driving directions on an Android phone since October, but we didn't have too many equivalent apps to compare it with until Microsoft released its own voice navigation service for Bing last week for Windows phones.
We took Bing on a few test drives against Google's map navigation, all in the San Francisco Bay Area. Both apps will likely eventually get you where you want to go, but both exhibited overly creative directions and produced their own frustrating errors.
What we liked
We immediately noticed Bing's less tinny-sounding directions bot. Sure, "she" still sounds robotic, but less so than Google's navigatrix. We also appreciated how the Bing app "bings" before sounding off the next direction. The chime was a natural and unintrusive interruption to signal that voice guidance is imminent. It would have been nice if Bing also chimed to indicate that it's time to make a left or right turn, as Magellan's GPS units do, but that's a more minor quibble.
I am trying to figure out which would be the best for work. I would like one that can take multiple destinations and set them in the best order to travel in as well as giving me the directions. Any info is greatly appreciated.
