I assume Trekker is not voice recognition. Is the keypad telephone-style or qwerty? What's the cost? Could I use it for driving?

Even in familiar territory it saved me from getting lost with my new guide dog. Micah drifted a little too far to the left when crossing a street. When I got on the sidewalk we again turned slightly left and all of a sudden trekker told me that I was on 20th St. Knowing that I was to be on Market St. I immediately turned around and went back about 25 feet to get on course. The drift and turn that Micah made were so subtle that I did not pick up on them as a course change. I actually just thought he took me around a parked car. ----- Original Message ----- From: "tunecollector" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:tunecollector%40sbcglobal.net> > To: <[email protected] <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> > Sent: Monday, October 29, 2007 8:02 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] GPS This is probably off topic but I don't know who else to ask.
