Skip the Tie This Year, Give Dad the Gift of GPS Navigation

Skip the tie this year and give your father a gift he will appreciate this Father's Day

With Father’s Day just around the corner (Sunday, June 21), we wanted to remind everyone to go out and buy your father something special to show him how much you appreciate all he’s done for you. If you’re a last minute shopper who wants to give your father a little more than the traditional ugly tie and cheap cologne, consider giving him the gift of GPS navigation. TeleNav GPS Navigator and similar products we power for our partners, including AT&T Navigator and Sprint Navigation, work with hundreds of mobile phones and deliver a comprehensive navigation experience right on the device. The applications are easy to use and you’ll never have to worry about your parents arguing over directions again during a long trip . . . or short one for that matter.

Here are just a few things you father will be able to do with TeleNav GPS Navigator on his mobile phone:

• Find the closest golf courses and restaurants – with more than 10 million points of interest at his fingertips, your father can find the closest golf courses, restaurants or hotels no matter where in the country he may be traveling
• Find the lowest gas prices in the area – if your father is like most, he’s not one for spending money when he doesn’t have to. With TeleNav’s GPS Navigator, he can locate the cheapest gas prices in the area to ensure he’s saving a little cash every time he fills up
• Receive traffic updates and route around it – most of us have probably witnessed our fathers make an inappropriate gesture or two when dealing with heavy traffic. With GPS Navigator on his phone, your father will be alerted of upcoming traffic issues and can choose to be routed around the traffic at the push of a button. He can also receive traffic alert e-mails so he knows the best time to hit the road to avoid traffic congestion
• Peace of mind - with GPS navigation available whenever he needs it, your dad can travel with the comfort of knowing that wherever he needs to go, he will be able to find his way. Consider the stress relief a nice repayment for the stress you caused him when you were growing up 

If you’re looking for a gift your father can use on a daily basis, you might want to consider setting him up with GPS Navigator on his mobile phone. We’re sure he will enjoy it and you might also find some benefit in knowing that he will now have a tool to help him navigate wherever he may need to travel.
