The boys' Black Box goes pink ... but has it got a mirror on the back?

Intempo's girly GPS incoming!

location based services

It was only a matter of time before a pink GPS touched down. Enter Buddy, the sassy satnav from Intempo Digital with flowers and butterflies to boot. Now you'll either find the new recruit completely patronising...
... or you'll marvel at how long it took for its metallic pink curves took to get here. Either way, the girly GPS will no doubt be spotted on more than a few dashboards this summer. Buddy has an 3.5-inch touch screen that will guide you to your destination without the need to consult burly maps which almost always cut into one's check-make-up-in-mirror time. Simply input city, street or postcode information or plan your route according to 'points of interest' such as airports, hotels, bars or restaurants.
You'll be able to throw the blushing navigator into your shopping basket with your shampoo on Monday over at Superdrug. Although at £300 you'll probably need to spend more time deciding on this purchase than whether your locks require moisturing or detangling suds. On the other hand, maybe not.
