| 00:00:06 |
00:00:08 |
Alright, GPSs are getting more
and more common, |
| 00:00:08 |
00:00:10 |
and they're also getting more
and more complex. |
| 00:00:11 |
00:00:13 |
Look at the size of this thing.
It's incredibly small, it's from TomTom. |
| 00:00:14 |
00:00:18 |
And it's not common.
And it's not complex. |
| 00:00:18 |
00:00:21 |
In fact, it's really easy to use.
TomTom is well known |
| 00:00:21 |
00:00:26 |
for being one of the easiest to use
GPS systems on the planet. |
| 00:00:27 |
00:00:29 |
They make it as simple as possible
for you, and of course, |
| 00:00:30 |
00:00:31 |
when you're in your car,
and you're driving around, |
| 00:00:32 |
00:00:35 |
you want as few distractions as possible
so you can stay as safe as possible. |
| 00:00:35 |
00:00:39 |
Right? So, if you've got all these crazy menus,
and all of these crazy options |
| 00:00:39 |
00:00:42 |
inside of your GPS, there's a good chance
you might be a little distracted. Right? |
| 00:00:42 |
00:00:45 |
This one will make sure you're not.
Why? Because it's really simple to use, |
| 00:00:46 |
00:00:50 |
and it's got text-to-speech capability built
right in, so it's going to speak |
| 00:00:50 |
00:00:54 |
all of your directions to you
including road names, street numbers, |
| 00:00:55 |
00:00:57 |
everything. It's not just gonna give you
the generic, turn left ahead. |
| 00:00:57 |
00:01:00 |
It's gonna say, turn left
on Flagler Street. |
| 00:01:00 |
00:01:03 |
So, it's gonna make it really, really easy
where you don't even have to look |
| 00:01:03 |
00:01:07 |
at the GPS to get to your destination.
Now, TomTom, as I was saying, |
| 00:01:07 |
00:01:12 |
is world renowned for making the easiest
to use GPS systems on the market, |
| 00:01:13 |
00:01:15 |
and I'll show you why.
If you take a look at this, |
| 00:01:15 |
00:01:20 |
you're going to find that it's got a,
just an ultra simple menu system. |
| 00:01:20 |
00:01:23 |
This is actually the 3-D view.
It does do 3-D. |
| 00:01:23 |
00:01:26 |
That's showing where we are
located right now. Alright? |
| 00:01:26 |
00:01:29 |
Now, it gives you a great view,
a great first person perspective |
| 00:01:29 |
00:01:32 |
of where you are. This is your
menu system, and this is it. |
| 00:01:32 |
00:01:34 |
Thos are all of your
menu options, right there. |
| 00:01:35 |
00:01:38 |
Two pages of menu options.
Very, very easy to use. |
| 00:01:39 |
00:01:42 |
In fact, all you have to do
if you want to navigate to somewhere, |
| 00:01:42 |
00:01:44 |
see that "Navigate To"?
Simply tap that button, |
| 00:01:45 |
00:01:48 |
it will give you your options.
You want to navigate to an address, |
| 00:01:48 |
00:01:51 |
or a city center, or a point on
the map. We want to go on... |
| 00:01:51 |
00:01:53 |
Let's say, we'll do a point on
the map, alright? |
| 00:01:53 |
00:01:55 |
We don't want a brief tour of the map
browser because we already know |
| 00:01:55 |
00:01:57 |
what we're doing, right?
Because we're GPS experts here. |
| 00:01:58 |
00:02:00 |
We don't need any,
we don't need any tutorials. |
| 00:02:00 |
00:02:03 |
But simply, we're gonna go from here.
Let's go down the street to right here. |
| 00:02:04 |
00:02:07 |
You say we're done.
And that's it. It'll map your route |
| 00:02:07 |
00:02:09 |
and tell you exactly
how to get there. |
| 00:02:09 |
00:02:13 |
Hit done, and it begins
your route. And, if we were in a car, |
| 00:02:13 |
00:02:15 |
it would be speaking to us and
telling us which way to turn. |
| 00:02:16 |
00:02:17 |
But we're not in a car.
So... And it knows that. |
| 00:02:18 |
00:02:20 |
That's how smart this GPS is.
It knows that we're not in a car, |
| 00:02:20 |
00:02:24 |
and won't tell us anything.
You can very easily get to your preferences |
| 00:02:25 |
00:02:27 |
right in here. It does have
day and night modes, |
| 00:02:28 |
00:02:31 |
which is going to allow you
to change to a dark color scheme |
| 00:02:31 |
00:02:33 |
as you can see right there,
for when you're driving around at night. |
| 00:02:33 |
00:02:37 |
So you don't have the bright glare
of an LCD in your face. |
| 00:02:38 |
00:02:41 |
So, it's really, really easy to change
all of the various options in this GPS. |
| 00:02:42 |
00:02:44 |
It's very, very easy to
choose your routes. |
| 00:02:44 |
00:02:46 |
You see that "Find Alternative"
right there? |
| 00:02:46 |
00:02:50 |
That is a very, very easy way
to change your route on the fly. |
| 00:02:50 |
00:02:52 |
Let's say you're pulling up
and you realize there's a nasty |
| 00:02:53 |
00:02:55 |
traffic jam out there,
you touch "Find Alternative". |
| 00:02:56 |
00:02:59 |
It'll tell you you can avoid a roadblock.
You can give it a specific road |
| 00:02:59 |
00:03:03 |
to travel through. You can tell it to
go back to the original route. |
| 00:03:03 |
00:03:06 |
Or, you can tell it to avoid
specific parts of your route. |
| 00:03:06 |
00:03:07 |
So, you simply tell it
to calculate an alternative. |
| 00:03:07 |
00:03:09 |
It'll figure out a new way
to get there. |
| 00:03:10 |
00:03:12 |
As you can see, before it was routing us
along this 41 right here. |
| 00:03:13 |
00:03:16 |
Now, it's routing us along 968.
So, if you know there's a traffic jam, |
| 00:03:16 |
00:03:19 |
it's gonna make it really, really easy
to get around that. |
| 00:03:19 |
00:03:23 |
Now, you can also, it also has a very,
very detailed "Points of Interest" |
| 00:03:24 |
00:03:30 |
library built right into it,
which allows you to very quickly find |
| 00:03:30 |
00:03:33 |
points of interest near you,
like gas stations, |
| 00:03:33 |
00:03:34 |
restaurants,
hotels, |
| 00:03:34 |
00:03:36 |
motels,
parking garages. |
| 00:03:36 |
00:03:41 |
It's got a very, very
detailed data base on board. |
| 00:03:41 |
00:03:45 |
So, you're going to be able to very, very
easily navigate to anywhere you want. |
| 00:03:45 |
00:03:46 |
In fact, if you haven't used
one of these yet, |
| 00:03:46 |
00:03:49 |
if you haven't been driving around
with a GPS, |
| 00:03:49 |
00:03:51 |
I gotta say,
you're a crazy person. |
| 00:03:51 |
00:03:53 |
I mean, you almost
have to have one. |
| 00:03:53 |
00:03:54 |
I've had one for
the last couple years, |
| 00:03:55 |
00:04:00 |
and I don't know how I ever
got along without my GPS unit. |
| 00:04:00 |
00:04:04 |
In fact, I've owned a TomTom
GPS unit, and I absolutely loved it. |
| 00:04:05 |
00:04:07 |
They're really, really great.
It's got a 3.5'' touch screen. |
| 00:04:07 |
00:04:11 |
It's a 320 x 240 resolution.
It's got 1 GB of internal memory. |
| 00:04:12 |
00:04:15 |
It is expandable, so you can
add traffic information to this. |
| 00:04:16 |
00:04:20 |
You can add an RTS receiver
to this GPS unit |
| 00:04:20 |
00:04:22 |
and you will be able to pull down
traffic information. |
| 00:04:22 |
00:04:26 |
It has a two hour battery, and, as I said,
will do text-to-speech as well. |
| 00:04:27 |
00:04:30 |
And, you'll find that this
is a very, very inexpensive GPS, |
| 00:04:30 |
00:04:34 |
especially one that does
text-to-speech and has the very, |
| 00:04:34 |
00:04:38 |
very deep point of interest library.
And the ability to be able to be expanded, |
| 00:04:38 |
00:04:40 |
like this one does. Now, let me show
you the mounting hardware |
| 00:04:41 |
00:04:42 |
that does come
along with it. |
| 00:04:42 |
00:04:43 |
It does come with this
mounting bracket. |
| 00:04:44 |
00:04:46 |
It makes it very, very easy to mount
to the inside of your car. |
| 00:04:46 |
00:04:48 |
Simply slap it right on
your windshield. |
| 00:04:48 |
00:04:54 |
It also comes with a USB cable,
and it comes with an AC car adapter. |
| 00:04:55 |
00:04:56 |
So, you're going to be able to immediately
plug this into your car |
| 00:04:57 |
00:04:59 |
and start using it
right off the bat. |
| 00:05:00 |
00:05:02 |
If you don't have a GPS yet,
or maybe you're just dissatisfied |
| 00:05:03 |
00:05:04 |
with the one you have
right now. |
| 00:05:04 |
00:05:05 |
Maybe it's a little
too complicated. |
| 00:05:06 |
00:05:07 |
Maybe it doesn't work quite
well enough. |
| 00:05:07 |
00:05:09 |
You're never gonna go wrong
with a TomTom. |
| 00:05:09 |
00:05:12 |
And this is a good one.
It's the TomTom 1S. |
| 00:05:13 |
00:05:16 |
