Your Mother-in-law on your dashboard?

Bored of the sound of your Wife/Partner's or Mother-in-law's voice on your travels?, Well at Absolute gadget we feel that the ‘Sat Nag ' is a great in car gadget since the Sat Nav was launched.

The voice replicates the default voice of the Sat Nav and is surely the quickest way to be sent around the bend. It is also made to appear in the same form as a sat Nav becomes the the all-knowing friend or annoying Mother-in-law and encompasses one amusing and irritating entity.

However, you should be informed that the Sat Nag will not aid you to find your destination at-all, and is a joke invention. Pressing the red button at the front of the device sets off a moaning female voice that provides consumers with a vast range of comical sat Nav commands with gems such as ‘I know you're a man but can you admit your lost now, and ask someone the way'; along with-‘In 100 meters turn left. No right, err, no left'. At the risk of taking a proverbial slap, the commands and jibes are extremely realistic. A hologram at the front of the device points out the important roads such as ‘Whiny Lane, Back seat Drive and Ear-ache Avenue' ; and is if we must say so ourselves, extremely amusing.

We all know that there is nothing quite as annoying as a back seat passenger providing a never-ending stream of annoying phrases and ‘advice' about faster routes. The Sat Nag even provides the corker, ‘in 100 meters stop and think, did you lock the back door'.

The innovative little gadget retails at around £7.99.
