"O.k. so you're out of town, you're looking for somewhere to eat. It doesn't get any easier than this. We're back here at this screen, the startup screen, "where to" so we hit where to and we have all these different menus come up. Address, city, and streets, favorites, food and hotel, let's go there. So, when we come up we can hit "search all", but if you have if you have your wife with you, you have somebody with you that's a little bit more particular than search all, you can actually come over to food and drink. And, here we have a choice, we can go American, barbecue, deli, Chinese, there's international, fast food, Mexican, Italian, seafood and just on and on and on, British Isles, I mean what, whatever it is that you want. So, we're going to back up though, because I'm not real particular what I eat, as long as I eat. You just call me late for dinner and we'll get along great. So, we're going to come over here and hit all categories. And, you can see here there's fast food restaurants, there's a, there's all kinds of little Burger King, Wendy's, we'll just go on down through here, Pizza Hut, let's just pick something out for grins. We'll find one here, let's see here, let's just go with the Allstar Grill, o.k. and it says it's one point four miles from my destination right now. It comes up with their address, comes up with their phone number. You can call them and find out what their hours are, you can call and make reservations, whatever you want to do and then you hit the go to, which I will right now and it's going to calculate it. And, it's going to tell me when I'd get there. And, I would get there, well, it's currently 11:09, I'd be there at 11:13. So, if I was moving, it would come up and calculate all that."
