GPS Voices??
Question: I'm deciding on which GPS to go with (Garmin and TomTom are on the top of my list) and I really want to have a good voice instead of the generic one they come with.
I have friends who have purchased new voices for theirs but wondered (and I know this sounds NUTS) if anyone knows if Mike Rowe does a voice for any of the GPS systems? I could listen to him give me directions all day ;)
Answers: I'm not sure about the voice feature but I do have a Garmin GPS for my fishing boat and have never been steered wrong, lol.
I never knew about that voice chip before either but you should ask the salesperson if they can answer your questions about that subject. I'll repost if I locate an answer as well ; )
You can buy specific voice chips. I am not sure if he does one specifically but I know eith TomTom or Garmin you can make it a Man/Woman with accents (British,Frendch,etc.) if that would help.
I know Mike Rowe from his work on the Discovery Channel and would have noticed his name as available on the list of voices when I bought my Garmin NUVI. I don't think he's an option there.
I'm sure he'd love to know you think his voice is so dreamy. Maybe you should consider a different voice, or you might not pay enough attention to the road when you're driving.
