    For starters theres no Japanese "V" syllables and they can't pronounce "V"s so modern kana resorts to ヴ (vu) + ィ which is vi or spoken as bi since "B" sounds the closest to "V". "wi" is another nonexistant syllable so they improvised with a "vi." Vijetto doesn't make sense so the translator probably thought "Bee" (which sounds like "vi") Jet (Jetto is the katakanization of Jet as well.)

    I know it's Super Widget because I've watched the show and played the game ;)

    That has to be the most gay shit, almost as tasteless as the acclaim ads after 9/11 with a fucking flag and pic of the towers in them.

    Is it just me or does it look like that flag in the picture is on fire?

    Not a bad price, but note that it doesn't have the Navi screen, nor the GPS Antenna. So, you can't use it as a (big, clunky) GPS system.

    Looks like the material my grandmother used to make blankets out of. Comfortable as hell, but I wouldn't put it around my SFC. :)
