It is my understanding that the Breeze was designed primarily to be used
by a pedestrian.

Subject: [gps-talkusers] Automatic announcement of intersections
Yesterday I had the opportunity to run Sendero GPS 5.03 and Trekker
Breeze side by side in a vehicle. Sendero GPS has a more useful way of
announcing intersections.
1. Sendero GPS 5.3 announces the name of the upcoming street shortly
after you go through the previous intersection. This gives you ample
time to tell your driver what to do. There is less time of course on
short blocks.
2. Trekker Breeze does not announce the upcoming intersection until you
are almost on top of it when it is too late to do anything about it.
This isn't an issue when on foot but it is when traveling in a vehicle.
Sendero Group - "The GPS company:" Featuring Sendero GPS on the
BrailleNote as well as Sense Nav and the new Mobile Geo for Windows
Mobile devices. Also distributing Trekker, Victor Stream, KNFB Mobile
Reader, Talks, Mobile Speak, Tiger embossers, Miniguide and ID Mate
