On the subject of GPS, can anyone tell me whether the system offered as an optional extra to the BN can be used effectively in a car? I have a sighted driving wife and don't want us to shell out on a system for the car, which we'd might also use for foreign travel, if I could make the BN do the same job. Any opinions greatly appreciated. ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin Chao To: 'Braillenote List' Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2007 8:16 PM Subject: [Braillenote] FW: [gps-talkusers] Way To Go is released!
