Military Personnel Now Have Access to CozyTraveler Accessories for use During Transport

Phoenix, AZ (Vocus) February 3, 2009

As of December, 2008, CozyTraveler travel accessories are available to military personnel. CozyTraveler products are a new addition to the military exchange on base (often known as the PX, BX, etc. depending on the military branch) where military personnel and their families go to procure personal necessities from groceries to medicine to glasses to clothing.

The CozyTraveler (http://www.cozytraveler.com) offers relief from the constant lack of sleep or uncomfortable, restless sleep that plagues many in the military throughout long flights and/or road trips. The travel accessory offers the benefit of a comfortable head rest, a resting place for arms, and the added benefit of being easy to use and extremely portable.

Everyone who has traveled has found that there just isn’t always a place to be even when you’ve purchased a seat; shoulder to shoulder accommodations are definitely not effective sleeping quarters. But no one knows how to rough it like the military when it comes to traveling without any extra comforts. There are no headrests. There are no pillows. Often…there aren’t even any cushions; just benches.

One soldier suggested, “Traveling with the military is a lot like everything else about the military…it’s just more intense.” He was the recent recipient of a CozyTraveler (thanks to his wife who wanted to make him as comfortable as possible as often as possible while he was away from her on his third deployment to Iraq).

About CozyTraveler:

The CozyTraveler is the original creator of the most all inclusive travel accessory for use on: planes, trains, automobiles, buses…or even at home. The current product line includes: RoadCozy, TravelCozy, EuroCozy, MediCozy, KidsCozy, SportsCozy, ShowCozy and the CozyBlanket. For details on any one product, visit http://www.CozyTraveler.com . The company was founded by Chad Hassell and Dave Broadbent with the intent of making the joys of traveling…much more enjoyable.

For More Information:

For more information on CozyTraveler and their recent agreement with the military contact Dave Broadbent, Founder, at d.broadbent (at) comcast (dot) net or by phone at: 801-597-4000. Or visit CozyTraveler online at http://www.cozytraveler.com.

If you travel a lot using several different modes of transportation then you probably are looking for a handheld GPS to help you find your way. Locating a source of discount handheld GPS units can be a problem. Being just a little bit bigger than a standard cell phone, handheld GPS receivers offer the ability to navigate to any location on earth. When not in use you can put in its holster ready for the next use.A quality handheld GPS unit can range from less than 0 to as high as ,000. A good quality unit with the best features will cost you about 0.00.

Manufactures that commonly offer handheld GPS systems include Cobra, Magellan, Garmin, Lowrance and Bushnell. Lowrance offers the best prices for handheld GPS systems that contain monochrome coloring. Their cheapest model is only .99, however we do not recommend buying a gray scale or black and white display. Unfortunately, Lowrance is not the best choice when it comes to colorized GPS handhelds, as their prices, (which can be over ,000) are almost expensive as more well-known Garmin or Magellan brands. For colorized handheld GPS, it is best to go with Cobra, (with their cheapest colorized unit costing only 2) and Bushnell, (whose cheapest colorized unit costs only 0). Bushnell is a new manufacture of GPS. However they offer unique GPS aerial photo mapping and weather tracking features.

Where can one buy a handheld GPS systems at a discount price? http://Amazon.com is one place that offers dozens of discounts on various brands of handheld GPS systems. Some of their handheld GPS systems are offered at a reduction rate as high as 41%. Others are discounted through special rebates. If this is not enough of a discount, one can try an online auction site. Since sellers on most auction sites are not professional vendors like Amazon. Usually they are just selling their used personal units allowing them to offer more in terms of price negotiation. It is not uncommon to buy discount handheld GPS systems at hundreds even thousands below retail price when purchasing from online auction sites.

Manufactures that market a large number discount handheld GPS receivers are: Cobra, Lowrance and Bushnell. These and other brands can be purchased from sites like http://Amazon.com or online auctions. Doing your homework and searching carefully you should not have any excuse for buying an overpriced handheld GPS system. Initially it might seem nice to get the most expensive, most popular brand-name handheld GPS available. However,if you can get all the features they need from a discount GPS system. The bottom line is that discount handheld GPS systems will function in the manner and have most of the same features as any retail priced handheld GPS receiver. A good handheld GPS receiver is a great travel necessity that will open the whole world to you, don’t leave home without it.

Choosing the best handheld GPS for Fishing

Magellan and Garmin have established to be the leaders in handheld GPS devices for fishing.

Both companies have a fine choice of handheld GPS’s to choose from; here are some of the right features of the handheld GPS systems

So these are some of the differences in the leading handheld GPS devices from Garmin and Magellan for fishing.

What are the most valuable features you could do with from your handheld GPS system? Large screens, long battery life and preloaded maps are all standard features today. Other extremely useful features contain quick connection to satellites, voice control, and plenty more. So what price do you want to pay, you want to get the appropriate value for the amount you pay.

Handheld GPS devices are good for fishing,biking,camping,hiking,boating, hunting, geocaching or any activity outside. A mounting bracket is a very useful extra so you can mount the handheld GPS in your car. These brackets can be also used on most boats,bicycles and motorcycles. Unlike GPS units made for your car, most handhelds don’t have voice prompts, nevertheless some of them will “beep” as you near your finish.

The Garmin vs Magellan competition is not over. It’s great that we have two main brands to choose from as both Magellan and Garmen now have top quality products at very competitive prices. Garmin seems to be ahead of the GPS war for the moment. Prices have come down in the past year and the quality of the products have improved. The technology in the handheld GPS units continue to improve.

This is not to say you should not buy a Magellan. I really like Magellan. The Garmin vs Magellan GPS competition benefits you. Both very strong and keep improving their products frequently.

Garmin has a variety of Handheld GPS for Fishing to choose from. The Oregon is an advanced, rugged handheld touch screen. The Dakota is the entry level of handheld GPS and the eTrex is outdoor navigation in the palm of your hand.

Magellan has the eXplorist series with 4 models for their handheld GPS devices. Each with their own features, so depending on your requirements and your price point the Magellan has a GPS for you also. They are extremely successful to those who are dedicated to geocaching.
