Bert and Ernie seem to have put the summer-time rumours regarding their friendship behind them and have come back strongly by adding to the growing list of voices available for TomTom satnav devices.

The characters' voices have been added to the line-up thanks to collaboration with Sesame Workshop and Locutio Voice Technologies. The friendly duo's take on guidance instruction is a more relaxed and friendly approach than the usual sterile style with funny banter shared between the two characters such as: "U-turn ahead, Bert. Just me turn? All of us Bert."

A 'making of' video of the pair in action can be found below while their voices can be downloaded for €9.95 now from the TomTom website at.  Unfortunately Rubber Duckie is not included!
