Avis does rent GPS navigators for about $10 per day. Maybe not in Huntsville since it's not so big a place. I see them at BWI in Baltimore where I rent only from Avis.
But I have long used a portable Garmin eTrex Vista GPS handheld when traveling. And the new Vista C is like a small version of the StreetPilot car version, with auto routing built in and excellent alerts and advance notice of turns. However, it doesn't know about restricted routes, so that wouldn't have helped you specifically, but it probably would have helped you graphically see that you took the first of 3 possibilities off the route from the airport rather than the correct 3rd one.
OTOH, you made a big deal of a small matter. You were not in danger of arrest. You were at the entrance checkpoint, and if not qualified to enter, you are just told to turn around. No big deal. They don't see a terrorist inside every mistaken approach. No alarmist exaggerations are needed here fortunately.
>>OTOH, you made a big deal of a small matter. You were not in danger of arrest.
Yeah, I know. That was just hyperbole on my part. Made for a more interesting read.

Interesting. I did not know that. Funny, they are doing a terrible job marketing it. Everyone knows Hertz NeverLost - no one knows the Avis equivalent.

I take it you are familiar with this part of Alabama? Wow, I must have blog readers everywhere then! (more hyperbole).
Seriously though, do you work in the research park for any VoIP-related company that I should be aware of or just a VoIP enthusiast that reads my blog?
