Google at work, YP at home (esp if computer isnt on at the time)

Maybe the poll should be:
Are you too dumb/ignorant to know how to use a phone book?

I'd like to see a poll on Melways (ie street directory) vs Navman/Tomtom etc.

3 times recently I've been in other peoples cars with them driving. They blindly follow what their stuuuupid electronic navigator tells them, even trying to go the wrong way down one way streets etc. And all 3 said they would not/could not use a street directory.

Maybe I'm too old, but a couple of hundred $$ for an annoying/distracting POS Navman vs $30 for a directory. I just dont get it.

Yeah, can't see the sense in one of those tom tom yum yum tom thumb plum bums or whatever they're called...

Follow heaps of muppets veering all over the road trying to read them, or stick them back on the windscreen!

UBD drectory, or google maps before you leave.
