Ferdinand Magellan was the first explorer to circumnavigate the globe. He did so under the Spanish crown in the 16th century. Since that time, the name Magellan has stood for navigation far and wide. Is it any wonder that there is a firm for global tracking services, therefore, named Magellan? Is it any wonder that the Magellan Roadmate series includes prime features for easy navigation and easy use?

The sciences of ballistics and body armor go hand in hand when dealing with the subject of personal protection. The history of bullets is parallel to the history of firearms and the means of preventing a fatality if one is ever hit. Around the late Middle-Ages, Filippo Negroli, an Italian armourer renowned for his skills with fashioning steel, was commissioned by Francesco Maria della Rovere, Duke of Urbino, to create the first bullet-proof apparel. Filippo became even more famous as several esteemed clients approached him to make more bullet-proof armor.However, as time passed, it became apparent that these body armors were more of a nuisance in battle rather than protection. It proved a little too heavy for soldiers to wear, and at the same time, it bogged down movement and agility. As firearms became even more powerful, it ultimately rendered all types of body armor inefficient and was discarded as the passage of years continued.

The commercial is centered on a driver who has been out shopping for gifts and has become lost in the process. As he drives through unfamiliar territory he encounters different Christmas characters along the way. In the background there is a chorus singing the Garmin jingle. The message is fun but serious at the same time. There are dangers on the road and you never know who, or what, you may encounter if you happen to lose your way.
