News Wire: Dear Friends, You are cordially invited to attend our Tek Talk program in which John Gunn a consumer and a staunch member of our audience will discuss Navigon, a GPS Application for the iPhone to be used by all persons.
In John's own words: There are several applications for the iPhone and I would like to discuss and demonstrate Navigon. The demonstration will include setting up Navigon as well as taking a ride in a car so that you can see firsthand how this Application works as a GPS device. I plan to hold a relaxed and hopefully an informative presentation. This application is one of many you can purchase from the iTunes store and it's written for sighted users, however, visually impaired users can take advantage of this as well. It is amazing how all users can share a mainstream application.
