TIME Magazine reviews Dell's GPS Navigation System for Pocket PC (Dell or otherwise) and comes away pretty happy, finding it "exceptionally good at certain things," like rerouting directions when you miss a turn (an exceptionally handy feature for absent minded drivers such as myself). One downside is the all-or-nothing setup of the map data, though. You can either every city and its area along your whole trip if you have the data, or just the start and finish - there's no option for just the major highways.

The Other RoadTrip

The Other RoadTrip 08/18/2004 05:07 PM

What happens when two companies come out with an FM transmitter for the car called "RoadTrip" in the same week? Although Newer Technologies RoadTrip isn't as full featured as the one offered by Griffin, it does have the ability to work with any car-bound device that uses a miniJack out - it's not iPod only, I'm saying. But still, I have this funny feeling somebody's going to be get a letter soon, and we'll be mentioning who gets a rename. Considering Griffin sort of started the whole 'Trip trip with the iTrip, I'm betting on them.

Griffin RoadTrip

Griffin RoadTrip 08/13/2004 09:06 AM

Peripheral maker Griffin has announced the RoadTrip, a multi-function iPod unit that serves as both a cradle, charger, and FM transmitter with digital readout. While it's not the most attractive unit I've ever seen - the faux brushed aluminum and readout is kind of corny - just having a separate interface for the FM transmitter will probably make it a favorite for many iTrip fans who have found FM transmitting to be useful but the iTrip's playlist-based interface lacking. Even cooler, the FM Transmitter can be removed from the cradle and used, via USB, to broadcast sound from any Mac or PC, turning it into a sort of low-powered radio station, or an FM-band Airport Express (without the Wi-Fi).

Time for a serious roadtrip

Time for a serious roadtrip 02/10/2004 02:42 AM

States I've visited:

I had a pathetically sheltered youth. While I saw just about everything you could see in California, it was always from the inside of a car so we could only get so far in so many days. I think my first plane flight wasn't until I was 12, and that was to the faraway place of Arizona. At the age of 25 the farthest east I'd ever been was still Arizona. Even with all my web-related travel over the past few years I didn't surpass ten visited states until 2001 and now I stand at a paltry 14 at age 31.

I once worked with someone whose goal was having his kids see all 50 by the time they turned 18. He got pretty close, too. I think it's a worthy goal -- you can't appreciate the vastness, the differences, or the similarities in this nation and its people until you get out there and visit a bunch of places and meet a good deal of them.

Griffin RoadTrip US Sale Delayed

Griffin RoadTrip US Sale Delayed 09/15/2004 11:22 AM

Hrm, it looks like Griffin Technology might have run into a few snags with the FCC, as the order page for their new RoadTrip iPod dock is now saying the product is only on sale outside of the US. They've gotten one FM transmitter out the door before, though, so I would imagine this is just a - and I'm so sorry for this, truly - a bump in the road.

Or perhaps there was some confusing with the other RoadTrip FM transmitter that was coming to market at the same time? (Thanks, Matt!)

GPS Navigation #3

GPS Navigation #3 01/10/2004 06:47 PM
On my first trip with my Garmin navigation system (Model 2610), I got lost within a quarter mile of home. Well, I didn't get lost because that doesn't happen when you have an omniscient navigator. I did manage to make a wrong — unindicated — turn, I think because I was not used to how far away an intersection is when the navigator says that I should turn left in 400 feet. A few seconds after you make the wrong turn, the navigator calmly says that you are "off course" and recalculates the route. As a result, it took me...

Griffin unveils 3-in-1 RoadTrip for

Griffin unveils 3-in-1 RoadTrip for
iPod, iPod mini 08/13/2004 07:17 AM
Griffin Technology has introduced RoadTrip, a 3-in-1 device that provides an FM transmitter, charger and cradle for all dock-capable iPod and iPod mini MP3 players. The transmitter broadcasts your music on any FM frequency on your car stereo, with a backlit display that shows which frequency is in use, while the charger keeps your iPod's battery at full capacity. The RoadTrip plugs into any 12-volt outlet or cigarette lighter in your car and its transmitter unit can be removed and plugged into a USB port on your computer, enabling music broadcast from it to any nearby FM stereo. Griffin has left the top of the US$79.99 device open for use with other iPod accessories, which means RoadTrip isn't compatible with the 1G and 2G iPods that have FireWire ports on top.
