Why is in-car GPS navigation a good idea? \u00a0Well according to a new survey from TomTom it takes just 23 minutes for young kids to get bored on long car journeys…so if there\u2019s a faster way to get to where you\u2019re going then you probably want to know about it.<\/p>\n

\nAustralia 23 minutes
\nUK 24 minutes
\nSpain 25 minutes
\nItaly 26 minutes
\nNetherlands 27 minutes
\nUS 30 minutes
\nFrance 30 minutes
\nGermany 31 minutes
\nNew Zealand 39 minutes<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If you haven\u2019t checked out the latest in GPS Navigaion, then you may be surprised to find that it\u2019s more than just a map that works with arrows and voice guidance to point you to your destination.<\/p>\n
