Hi Terry,
Talknav are not the only supplier, you should have asked us. I would have
taken you for a walk with it <Smile>.
All the best

Hi.
We tried to get the rep from TalkNav to do a wayfinder walk last year but he
didn't want to.
Obviously this is the best way to hear the product at work.
We do intend to od a detailed feature about wayfinder in a future infotech
and as I now have the product a part of that feature will be to take it for
a walk.
Not sure though when we'll get to doing it.
Terry Clasper.
