Announcing Sendero GPS 2011

Davis, California, May 16, 2011


GPS Version 2011 is Sendero's fifteenth version since the laptop GPS 
was first released in 2000. It has been 18 years since the founders 
of Sendero began working on the first GPS prototypes.


The Sendero GPS 2011 version available today is for the BrailleNote 
family of products as well as for Sendero Maps for the PC, a powerful 
tool you receive free with the purchase of either the BrailleNote or 
Braille Sense GPS products. The 2011 Sense Nav GPS will be coming 
soon followed by the 2011 version for Mobile Geo in a month or so.


There are 7 major improvements in version 2011 since the 2010 
version. Highlights include:


Most importantly, new 2011 maps and Points of Interest.


New purchases of v2011 come with maps and 2 additional years of 
upgrades.  The Software Maintenance Agreement (SMA) counts for 3 
years of upgrades.  You must already be running v2011 to buy an SMA.


In Explore mode, we have improved Virtual Navigation for Apex, 
Sendero Maps and Sense Navigation including better descriptions for 
over and under passes.


We have nicely improved the ability to track the side of the street 
and cross street on the Apex, Sendero Maps and Sense Navigation.


A huge new feature is the addition of freeway exit numbers and the 
announcement of which city the freeway is heading towards: for 
intersections, lookaround intersections and route 
following.  Example: "ramp to CA-85 SB. Exit 1A, towards Gilroy."

Ability to describe any intersection with the "annotate intersection" feature.
