If you could have any person who you have ever heard be the voice directing you through your GPS navagation device, who would it be and why?

James Earl Jones

Alec Baldwin

I wish my voice sounded like his.

Spongebob

Patrick Stewart. He has a great voice and after I entered my destination, entered my coordinates, he would say “Make it so.” I would love that.

Definitely Majel Barrett-Roddenberry, using her voice of the Starship Enterprise computer.

I thought it might be prompted by the recent Doonesbury storyline.

Ronald Reagan

John Hurt, most awesome voice in showbiz.

Judge Judy. Who wouldn’t do what she said to do?

HAL 9000

Laura Linney. I love the sound of her voice.

Hayashibara Megumi (in her cold voice mode, á la Haibara Ai)
Hirano Aya (In her Kagami role)
Tamagawa Sakiko (In her Tachikoma role)

@ETpro Oh yes, definitely. But it does have to have the computer beep sounds too.

Morgan Freeman.
we’re all so pro at saying why.
I want him because I want god to speak to me.

Alan Rickman
Michael Palin
Stephen Fry

LOL @jaytkay HAL 9000,
GA

Christopher Walken

Michael C Hall

Hal 900 is just too scary: I’m afraid I can’t give you those directions right now, @pdworkin .

Panthro.

Pierce Brosnan. He’s hot with a sexy accent.

Granny Clampitt.I’ll accept nothing less.

William shatner hands down.

@LKidKyle1985
Yeah I can image in that:
LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEFFFFFFFFFFFTTT!!! RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGHHHTTT!

My Mom. She was good at giving directions and usually pointed me in the right direction on many things. It would be nice to hear her voice again.

@ragingloli. Definitely needs the computer sounds, and it has to say WOrking whenever you ask it a question.

My mom! Actually, no, that would be a terrible thing! She was the one who taught me how to drive, and I don’t think I could go through that again. (Sorry, mama)
I would choose my friend Jo, though. She has the coolest voice ever. And if that ever got annoying, I would want a variety of famous persons I could choose from. Like Jane Lynch.

I wouldn’t mind hearing Howard Cosell telling me where to go….

Marilyn Monroe. Because her voice was so damn sexy.

@aprilsimnel Alan Rickman, mmm… if Patrick Stewart isn’t available… I love Alan Rickman. I fell absolutely “madly” in love with him in Truly Madly Deeply and have never quite gotten over it.

We’ve actually talked about this before when we first got our GPS. I think a sterotypical Redneck would be great!

Oh, I forgot to say why. OK.

Well, Alan Rickman; I mean, he’s just got a knicker-melting-ly smooth baritone.

Michael Palin because his is a comforting voice. I’ve literally heard it in some form or another for 30+ years.

Stephen Fry because he’s got a very erudite voice. I’d love a little monologue from him about my destination. I’d expect no less from the man with a brain the size of Kent.

i have the knightrider gps with the original voice of “K.I.T.T” on it ,, even calls me by name . verrrry cool . if you wanna shell out $350.00 for one .

@The_Anonymous_Witch That’s wicked cool!

@ETpro i first saw them in the sears catologe ... but got mine off ebay . has like 200 programable names .. i was shocked to see mine on the list… “yours” usually never is on this type of thing right ? lol say“etpro ,,, where would you like to go today ? ...hello etpro ! ... et pro .. turn left at lights . “hi , i am the knight industries 2000, “kitt” if you prefer, how may i help you ? ... sooo cool !

@The_Anonymous_Witch As soon as I get me another car, I’m going to get one of those!

lol ,, it is fun .. even has the woooo wooo…. wooo wooo sound when you turn it on.

Next best thing to a vibrator. You turn it on, it returns the favor. :-)

lol

Any Scotsman!

the australian guy that i waited on tonight at work. i never wanted him to stop talking.

The Sarcasm Club of America.

“Yeah, like we exist solely to help YOU.”

LOL!!

Rush Limbaugh

@Roby Some navigation that would provide. Turn right! NO, more right. Can’t you turn the steering wheel? Liberal weasel. Who cares if there’s a ditch on the right. Turn anyway.

Jim Carrey and let him surprise me each time with a different voice so I’d stay awake.

Michael Dorn doing the voice of Worf, and he must refer to me as Captain….

“Captian, you have arrived at your destination!”

@Ansible1 hahah i would love to be called Captain someday. What I’m saying is, someday I hope to drive a boat.

Alan Rickman. However, I’d be so entrhalled by his voice that I’d probably never reach my destination! I’m sure that everyone would get tired of hearing me say “Alan Rickman made me late again”.
