@Madmax333

"It's a speed trap!"
@Madmax333 Its more like Chad Vader's TomTom than Darth Vader's, LOL.
@Madmax333 I WANT CANDY!!!!!!
@Madmax333 Aaaaahhhhhhhh! This makes getting it so damn worth it. I wonder if they're including any sound effects.
And how the heck would R2D2 work? Will it be Princess Leia's holographic voice. Or just long and short beeps and whitles.
@SeeKo
what about CHUBAKA?
AAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH AAGGHHH AGH
@Raskolnikow Wise decision you have made.
@Madmax333: Can anyone else Imagine if C-3P0 was the voice instead? I want a video is 3P0. Now.
"The odds of taking a U-Turn here, are 5,672 to 1!'
@Meekermoloko It's a SPEED TRAP!!
@Madmax333
I like the idea of a Yoda voiceover the best.
"LEFT, you must now go" seems to get the most important info to me first.
@Raskolnikow
driver - "crap i just made a wrong turn"
darth vader tom-tom - "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
@Madmax333 Meesa Wantsa Jar Jar Binks on this!
Please Down Rate this Comment into Oblivion! :p
@Pookiewood
Hey Vader, where you at? There's a whole post mentioning you and you waste your time force chocking people! We miss your "husky" voice! :P
@who said what Lord Vader Posted May 4th 2010 7:21PM HIGHEST RANKED
@TheAmazingWJV. WHAAAAT!!!????? They told me they would not air that video. It was meant to be strictly confidential. TomTom will feel the blunt edge of my lightsaber for airing this. I'm going to go obliterate some planets to ease my anger
@Sarcasme
I'm impressed! I see you are planning to write a biography for him?
@Madmax333 I want Joker from Dark knight
and start the navigation with
"Why so serious"
@Meekermoloko
I'd uprank you but you're already "highest ranked". You just made me crack up in class....
@adokimus
Or Left....you must NOT go. HAHAHAHA Fooled you have been.
@donv69
You'd have to memorize what the beeps and whistles mean. But it's be totally worth it if you're riding with people in the car ...
"Dude, WTF?"
"It means turn right."
IMPRESS YOUR (girl)FRIEND(s)!
@Meekermoloko
LOL!
That has to be the single funniest post I have seen in a long time.
Thanks man, you made my week. :)
Vader can now use TomTom to find the location of the Rebel base
@d0mth0ma5
He'll get lost when he needs to turn right onto the roundabout
It would be so win of TomTom if they had an option to keep the goofs in. While I don't have any near me, I would seek one out just to hear him say "roundabound"
*Cue Vader on Engadget*
@AlienSix
*Patiently waiting to hear Lord Vader's comments on this*
@N3XuSeXe
I think he's on his way back from the recording studio still. Traffic must be bad in outer space?
@AlienSix Must be sleeping......
@N3XuSeXe Where is he when you need 'em?
Maybe destroying a planet or two...
@N3XuSeXe
only reason I clicked 'read more'
@AlienSix I really hope for them, that they asked for his permission...
@Atkins We all know what happens if they didnt
Gonna have to choke a bitch
@AlienSix
Pay attention, people!

(If Engadget ever does commenter of the year Vader gets my vote. He's epic :D)
@AlienSix Give him some time, he's probably still on his way back from his recording session
Sorry, I'm just back from the recording studio. Flew into some KIRF tie fighters on the way over. Let's just say they felt a disturbing force as they crumbled into oblivion.
@Lord Vader I thought death fighters were faster than that..
dude... engadget... lil late are we?? i saw this like a whole day ago from a link on a post on that dealio with ellen degenerous!! (sp?)
psh slackers...
@inestine
I was just going to mention that. Didn't mind watching it again, though! Anything to keep me from writing this darned term essay...
@inestine Yep, I gave Vader a link to this vid in the Ellen comments (how's that for off-topic).
Suffice to say the sith lord was less than pleased.
Engadget, please give me a 'thanks to' :)
As I've said, many Bothans have died to acquire this video.
Roundabound... :D:D:D LOL!
* choking sounds *
If you miss one of its turns, it NEEDS to say "I find your lack of faith disturbing"
@JRKScope It does.
@JRKScope
Holy crap that would be amazing!
@Vlad Savov It does?? That is cool.
@Atkins Go to the source page and listen to one of the samplings.
@Vlad Savov Uni proxy doesn't let me vuew the video. I'll wait till I get home
@Exzra Checked. Lol :)
