This was actually a link from the front page of CNN.

Clicky (http://www.cnn.com/2005/AUTOS/funonwheels/11/22/celebrity_nav/index.html)

I'm just wondering - who the hell would buy this?

I heard about that too. I'm not really into the these help systems for cars, but if I had to buy one... I'd go with Mr. T! :D

Yipe. That's (hopefully) not something you'll see every day. I think I'll stick with the default voices, thank you very much. Ugh...

Dennis Hopper sounded as if he had a bad hangover and I'd just dragged him out of bed for this.

"Turn left in 200 feet... Oh, man," he would groan.

:lol:

Actually, just wait for them to contract a big name rapper or two, and bam, everybody will have one :(

I can see it now...

"BITCH THIS IS MIKE JONES! TURN LEFT IN 2 MILES MUTHAF**A, OR I'LL GET ALL UP IN YO GRILL!"

It makes me weep :(

Yes...I can certainly picture that do.....I'd be quite interesting to have that in your car.

Lol. :D

I guess the idea is OK, but some of them seem extremely irritating.

They need to get Majel Barrett to do it! She was the voice of the Enterprise computer in TNG.

Anthony Daniels would be another good one.

Maybe they could do R2D2 as well. hehe
R2: "BEEP BEP BEEP BEEEP WHHHEEEE!"
Driver: "What?!?"
