 Tom Tom has Homer Simpson and now Garmin has Darth Vader. Downloadable for $12.99, Garmin users can receive driving directions courtesy of Star Wars' Darth Vader. In his highly recognizable voice, Darth Vader will relate directions in Star Wars-themed phrases like "You have reached your destination, impressive, most impressive," "Traffic ahead. The Emperor has foreseen it" and "Proceed to the highlighted route. Your destiny lies with me. Obi-wan knew this to be true." The phrases are randomized so users will not always hear the same response each time. Additionally, Star Wars fans will recognize segments of the movie's score along with lightsaber sound effects. Next, Garmin is scheduled to release Yoda's GPS voice. |
