Actually, you can already download various voices for your Tom Tom. Most of them are just funny, non-celebrity voices, but you can select John Cleese if you’d like.
Rachael Ray- You make a RTRH, that’s a Right Turn Right Here,then go straight for less than 30 minutes and make a left turn at the GB, thats’s Garbage Bowl,then pull in at the stoup. Dee-lish!
Someone who has enough of a sense of humor about things that I can imagine him recording the necessary sound samples for this would be Christopher Walken. And (like Shatner), it would even work with the slightly unnatural rhythm of the speech synthesis (at least, the synthesis in my Honda).
Although I’m not sure if having Christopher Walken guide me places would be awesome or disturbing.
Another one that would actually be cool would be James Earl Jones.

I recall a Reader’s Digest article poking fun at the Tom Tom pointing out that alongside John Cleese, Mr. T is also a real available celebrity voice. That might be interesting. “Turn left, FOOL!”
