I like the "Taxi Technique" too. I've traveled with friends using GPS with mixed results. I don't own a GPS but am trying to learn them, get better at figuring them out.
I'm a slow learner regards computers ... but hopefully will find an easy to use Novice oriented GPS that will work outside the USA and won't involve complicated downloads and buying various routes. Seems a bit complicated.
If Apple made a GPS ... I'd probably buy it as I've had good luck with their computers.
I have a question for the GPS riders out there ... How do you manage to look at the GPS screen and follow it ... while riding in City traffic?
Constantly looking down at the screen may have some risks? No?
I know some units do voice prompts ... but ones we've used (in the car) have always been WRONG ... and take really stupid routes. (this with places I know) Now why is that?
Must be me as the whole world seems to get along fine using GPS.
