 Great item for the price. December 19, 2006
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
My reason for getting this item was to get me from Wisconsin to the east coast for job interviews, but also to guide me through some sight seeing as well. Initially the item I was looking for was the Tomtom One, but the price really made me look for an alternative whereas I happened upon this item.
For the long haul parts of the trip the item worked extremely well and was fairly accurate at finding food and gas stations along the way, however with all the changes of businesses it was off a few times. Navigation in DC was very good, but does not account for traffic as some of the newer navigation systems are doing which would have been a fantastic help in rush hour traffic. The pedestrian mode was also helpful on occasion and with the small size is easily useful that way.
The learning curve was not steep for me, but I would consider myself tech savvy and I could see how people new to the item could have difficulties. As well, every few hours the unit went back to the launch screen, especially when changing from one map section to another, which was a bit annoying and surprising.
Positives:
Small package
Great price
Accurate maps and directions
Negatives:
Moderate learning curve
Requires restart when switching zones and rarely other times at random
Overall:
I would highly recommend this product to somebody looking for a simple portable GPS. This isn't a product with all the bells and whistles, but is a great product for any geeks lineup.
