Cell phone for car driving?

Cell phone for car driving?

You are using cellular phone for tel-communication.
The car navigation system was begun by AU with the cellular
phone finally.
Because the driver cannot operate the cellular phone, the person in the
passenger's seat will operate it.
Even if it loses one's way, a correct road is guided because GPS has equipped.

It is a good service even though it is voice reading out only in Japanese.
This type would be desired available in foreign countries.

Japanese English (II)

During a conversation, you may find a strange word.
Some of them are developed in Japan.
For example, salary man.
If you ask someone, "What is your job?".
His answer might be a salaryman.
What he wants to say is "I'm an employee".
