From today's Washington Post: Where my sweet navbot at? Personal GPS-based navigation devices in cars -- the ones that say "In 500 feet turn left" -- are far and away the most abundant machines smart enough to talk to us and sometimes listen. Nonetheless, humans continue to perceive them as surly, dumb or frantic -- especially when the bot realizes you think you're smarter than it is. washingtonpost.com (You men out there will want to click through the slideshow photos to see the chick who does the Australian voice for Garmin.)
I wish they would have used Majel Barret for the computer voice .... after all she is the voice of all Starfleet based computers.... Hey Doc Willie another one to go for!!! And where are those darn Okudagrams for the new MFD screen displays!!! 73 de Pat KK6PD
