Whenever I meet someone brand new to Boston, the first thing I tell them is what "bang a U-ee" means, not only could one get lost,but you could hurt yourself without the proper knowlwedge.

I keep hearing that it gets people lost. I'm sticking with maps and asking for directions.

Then again, I've stuck with the same car for going on 14 years.

There are stories in Amsterdam of people driving into canals following GPS. The major brand of GPS over here is called TomTom, by the way. Stupid TomTom.

I bet it would be really helpful. You could attach to your handlebars.

If I got a talking one, it would confuse the hell out of my fellow commuters...
