Navigating your way through life with Garmin. Thoughts on purchasing an oracle (not the dbms).
In a few weeks, I will be making the big move to Atlanta, GA. Sure, Google maps says it will take me exactly 10 hours to reach my destination (647 miles) but I came to the realization that my bad sense of direction needs a life coach.
So, after hours of research at the coffee shop while my car was being repaired for some odd exhaust problem that ended up costing me over $300, I made a choice that will ultimately shape my experience in adapting to the southern way of life.
And that choice was the Garmin Nuvi 260w. (of course I wouldn’t settle for anything less than widescreen- hence the “w”).
Maybe it also answers questions like, “Garmin, what should I wear tonight?” “Should I go out with that guy?” or the ever-critical, “what is the meaning of life? Tell me, Garmin.” Once I get it I will do an engadget-like “unpacking party” complete with photos of me clutching my new friend. Maybe I should introduce the Garmin to my LanesBerry (my BlackBerry)? Sure, some may call it personification, but I call it probable truth.
