The NavPix
<http://www.navman.com/navpix/templates/standardcontent.aspx?id=40210>
technology works by cleverly adding the coordinates of a destination
onto an image of the chosen building or landscape, which is then saved
onto the Navman device. Once stored, users simply scroll through their
album, choose a destination via the image and Navman calculates the best
route. Navman has created a dedicated Valentine's
<http://navpix.net/album/view/18964> NavPix album, available for
budding romantics to view, share and download geo-tagged images via the
NavPix Library
<http://www.navman.com/navpix/templates/default____40200.aspx> .
To join the NavPix community, Navman users can also upload their own
geo-tagged images or digital images (provided with location information)
to Navman.com
<http://www.navman.com/Navman/templates/BUHomepage____3407.aspx> to
create their own geo-tagged albums. As the NavPix Library also allows
users to download and share thousands of images with others around the
world, Navman invites romantics to contribute from their own Valentine's
Day experience by uploading local POI images for others to navigate to
next year.
