Some people have voices that are calm, cool, and soothing. Gary Busey's voice doesn't really have any of those qualities. That's what makes the fact that his is the newest celebrity voice available for TomTom portable navigation devices so intriguing. For $12.95, you can download the Busey voice add-on and install it in your existing devices, not only for directions but also for plenty of choice Buseyisms, to add a little color commentary to your drive.

So if you're craving philosophical insights such as "Make a U-Turn; both the right and left side of your brain will be in action," or "Left turn ahead; watch out for the animals in your area; if you create a roadkill, you are required to stop, pick it up, and eat it," go for it. But if Gary Busey isn't your thing, other celebrity voices are available to accompany you on the road--including Burt Reynolds and Dennis Hopper.
