Kapsys Kapten uses nothing but the voice

Kapsys Kapten

Take a good look at this GPS.  That’s right, that is a GPS, not a remote control or an MP3 Player.  Introducing the Kapsys Kapten, a GPS that has a display of 0 x 0 resolution. 

Apparently, any and all instruction given to this Kapsys Kapten is done via vocal commands.  This means that you had better speak clearly when you’re telling the address you want directions to, and hopefully you will hear the computer clearly when it tells you where to go.

The company has designed this device for the walkers and not the drivers.  I always hoped the GPS market would be targeted more for the pedestrians rather than the drivers. 

The Kapsys Kapten has some nice specs with a SiRFStar III GPS chipset , 4GB of internal memory, and weights about 50 grams.

The Kapsys Kapten is planned to be released in the middle of September for the price of around $220.
