GyPSy Guide

Has anyone rented a GyPSy Guide? It’s a tour guide in the form of a GPS. The device gives you background and commentary as you drive around Canada. I read the stellar reviews on TripAdvisor and had to have it. We picked our GyPSy up in Banff, then dropped it off in Jasper. Throughout our route, the guide gave us really interesting details on the sites we were visiting, tips on where to park, told us a funny story about a hungry bear making its way into the kitchen of a restaurant during business hours. When I returned the device, I told them how much I loved it and they said everyone raves about it. Apparently, the company is looking at expanding to other places outside of Canada.

This is one of the best business ideas I’ve come across in a long time. I want to copy it and make this happen in the U.S.
