 NAVIGON 5100 GPS February 22, 2008
Excellant product, reality view makes the unit great to use at confusing highway intersections. Would definitely buy a Navigon product again...

So far I really like the new Navigon system. I was a little wary of buying from an unestablished company, yet this is a great product. The interface is easy to use and intuitive. The mount is steady, sticks to the window well, and puts the device easily within sight and reach. The lane assist and real-life view are helpful in unfamiliar settings. Free traffic and construction updates are helpful in big cities as well. One downside is that speaker is on backside and announces towards the window, so if the radio is on its a little hard to hear. Not a big deal though, if you really need the directions you can turn the radio down. Only other downside is that it takes a minute or two to find the satellite, but I'm not sure if this is unique to this product or common to all GPS units.

I bought this item because it looked good on paper. I did not want to skimp as it was a present.
Here is how it failed.
Incident one - Even when I went 3 miles off course, in an attempt to test its ability to reroute. It tried to take me back to the original course. I was only 4 miles away from my destination if I kept going straight on my current course.
Incident 2 - Told me to turn right when the road was visible on my left. As soon as I made the turn the unit instructed me to make a u-turn accross a 4 lane high way.
Incident 3 - The directions from Willow Grove PA to Langhorne were dead wrong. They should have been take PA Turn Pike east (Toll) to Route 1 North. The unit and all of its graphics instructed me to go west bound on a toll road. When I used my sound judgment and went east, it kept trying to get me to make an illegal u-turn. At the correct exit, its directions were "Route 1 south bound, to Street Road, Street Rd to Route 1 North Bound." This will take you out of the way, when you can exit directly onto the highway north bound.
If it cannot handle major highways, it is essentially useless.
Calls to the technical support were equally disappointing. They ended in the already documented "I'll have a supervisor call you back," which never happens.
The final insult, is if you lose the SD card, the unit will not function. You cannot format another card and there was no way to get a replacement part. I called Tech Support to see what would happen, and they did not know how to replace the card. This unit is too expensive to throw away when a small part goes missing.
I have heard that the 2100 is a good unit but I am not willing to trust Navigon with my money.
