James Kim and GPS Navigation?

by hoomanborhani - 12/6/06 12:27 PM

My thoughts go out to the Kim family, I hope they find him soon.

With this story being in the spotlight of national media, I was wondering this: Was James Kim using GPS when driving his car?

If this is so, do these GPS navigators give poor directions by not taking into account things such as poor road ways compared to major highways? I find this concept interesting, similar to the commercial where a guy turns into a building after his GPS navigation said to "Turn Right".

Just curious and wanted to start this discussion, because it very well could have lead to the family getting stuck.

MSNBC has an item posted about how the Kim family may have been misled by questionable route recommendations...
