Independent Living Aids has entered into an agreement to sell the KAPTEN GPS system, made by French company Kapsys Systems. It's claimed to be the first voice-operated GPS system, though others like Mobile Geo have offered this feature through Microsoft Voice-Command for some time now. Aside from this, the screenless device offers vehicular, pedestrian, and public transportation modes and also serve as an MP3 player and FM radio. A similar agreement with Widget UK was signed in the United Kingdom where it retails for around $300. Here's a review from Mike May on the unit, albeit from a competitor.
