http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2008/06/23/knight_rider_satnav/ The days when Michael Knight tore across the US in KITT are long gone, but Mio is keeping the memory alive with a Knight Rider inspired satnav. Knight_Rider_GPS_01 Mio's Knight Rider satnav uses the car's original 'voice'. Images courtesy of Auto Blog According to a report by car news website Autoblog.com, Mio has designed a Knight Industries Two Thousand-themed GPS unit that, of course, speaks all navigation instructions using the voice of William Daniels – the voice behind KITT. Perhaps that means every user will have to be called Michael by default though? My nerd dreams have come true.... and I must have one.
my name IS Michael!! 270 wouldn't be a bad price if it came with a SD slot, bluetooth, and FM transmitter along with text-to-speech with video and music player.
That's really cool! Thanks for posting this... it would actually be a good gift for my brother (his birthday is coming up) Edit: darn doesn't say when it will be available!! I want to order it now!
kramer from "seinfeld" has one coming out. it's pretty indecent. the real nice feature on this one is, if you do get pulled over, then it has kramer "lose your cool" mode. you just point it at the window, it detects the presence of a cop, and then it goes off. you don't have to say a word...as you shouldn't.
