I’ve found my next station in life – as the voice of CoPilot® Live™ satellite navigation.
CoPilot Live
CoPilot Live provides fully featured voice-guided sat nav for mobile phones such as the Nokia N95 and the HTC Touch. So I’ve voiced for tube trains, now I’m in cars – what’ll be next? Space rockets? Dinghies?? One day the world of transport announcing will be mine – all MINE…MMMWWAAAHHHAHHAAAAA…
No but seriously...
I’m delighted to report that my voice is available for download by owners of the new CoPilot Live 7 navigation system, helping them find their way to places with confidence.
Michael Kornhauser, Managing Director of CoPilot developer ALK Technologies explains: “When we heard about Emma’s availability we immediately got in touch. Our research indicates that the most important criteria for a sat nav voice is clarity of pronunciation, and as every London commuter will know ‘The Voice of the Tube’ is exactly that.”
Michael went on to say: “Emma has a great voice and a fantastic sense of humour. She has turned this situation around just by being herself. We’re sure we’ll be the first of many new clients in the coming months.” Reader, he’s a lovely man.
