It’s not quite Kitt, the artificial intelligence computer system onboard the Knight Rider car, but TomTom, the maker of portable GPS systems has inked a deal with Twentieth Century Fox to have Dan Castellaneta provide Homer Simpson catch phrases for their devices.
Why settle for a robotic voice offering you turn by turn directions when you can have a well known American father figure.
He may not be the world’s best dad, but you have to love his antics and who could resist some of his fatherly advise in the from of “Take the third right. We might find an ice cream truck! Mmm…ice cream.”
With Father’s Day around the corner, it seems that the TomTom Homer Simpson voice skin is making waves at just the right time.
