It Just Works

I spend my whole time whining about how much I hate this or that application.

So it's a rare pleasure to have something as simple and effective as my Sat Nav.

We bought it, slapped it on the windscreen, pressed the most obvious buttons and drove straight to our destination.

There's a big manual that comes with it but I see no reason to use it.

You can enter an address, you can search for a business by name, you can even browse local resteraunts by food type.

When it's giving the directions it is clear and concise and it even has a choice of US or British english voices.

The screen is crisp and clear and the maps are simple and pretty with nice anti aliased curves and text.

I simply cannot fault it in any way.

Gosh.
