While I have a tendency to go on about gadgets that make life more liveable, I find there is also a place in everyone's heart for gadgets that are as useful as a Sat Nav on a train. Keeping on this theme, meet the highly impractical Sat Nag. No, it's not a direction provider for your horse, it is in fact far less helpful than that.
The Sat Nag gives your driving experience that bit of humanity that normal Sat Navs lack. It satirises directional commands, and gives voice to what the person sitting next to you on the passenger side is really thinking. Instead of turning left in 50 metres, expect to be told things such as:
“I know you’re a man, but it’s been 35 minutes now, so can you please admit you’re lost and ask someone the way?” and;
"In 100 metres turn left. No right, err, no left. Sorry, I never can tell my left from my right.”
The Sat Nag features no GPS technology and no direction-giving capabilities, though it does have a holographic screen, featuring roads such as Backseat Drive, Whiny Lane and Earache Avenue. No, unfortunately it won't find your nearest High Street- meaning that as good as it is, it will never replace your wife.
This is a really fun device which every car needs, just to remind you to have a laugh after that taxi cut you off at the last lane merge. Priced at £7.99 it's a good deal cheaper than traditional Sat Navs, and will provide you with potentially hours of entertainment if it doesn't drive you up the wall first!
