Hey all.
I have a hardly used trekker breeze for sale. I've only ever used this once or twice - since then it's been carefully stored in it's case. I was very impressed with it when I did use it; it was able to pinpoint where I was down to a few meters which I find pretty incredible given that I was testing it on a university campus - it would probably work even better in more popula destinations.
Having said this, I'm considdering how well an iphone would fit into my life, so I'm putting it up here to see if anyone wants to take it off my hands.
Like I say, it's only really been used once or twice and it comes with everything that you would get if you bought it directly from humanware.
Hw are selling it for £485; I'd be willing to let it go for £385 plus shipping but I'll considder any sensible offers if you don't feel the price is quite right.
Please feel to respond in what ever way you want - post here, pm me or add me to msn (See profile).
Please see next post for the description on humanware.

HumanWare introduces the very simple and affordable GPS for people who are visually impaired. As simple as your TV remote, Breeze can be controlled by one hand. It verbally announces names of streets, intersections and landmarks as you walk. No need to stop passersby to know where you are... simply press a button and Breeze tells you your location on the spot. When you are in a vehicle, Breeze announces all intersections, allowing you to exit when you want.
Imagine doing your neighborhood chores freely without having to always depend on other people, without having to count your steps or always worrying about getting lost... Breeze tells you where you are, where you are going and what is around, such as stores and public services. You can get more out of your neighborhood.... A new world awaits you!
