Getting the right GPS system can be a hair-raising - and expensive - experience, but this little beauty has been absolutely wonderful from the start! The cost alone is amazing when compared with others.

It's DEAD simple to use; it even picked up a signal in 20 seconds, despite being warned that it could take up to ten minutes! And it came into service almost immediately. I'd had a quick flick through the simple menus etc (no real need even to consult the user manual it's so obvious if you're even half-way computer literate), left it to finish charging at home, and then promptly locked myself out of my car several miles away! My partner was able to pick it up and use it after my quick phone instructions, and came to my rescue in minutes; it even survived being dropped, apparently.

The ONLY thing is that there isn't a mains charger, BUT, because it uses a mini USB, I was able to charge it from my mobile phone charger - so have a check of your charger; it may be just the… more »

There are loads of 'places of interest' in one of the sub-menus, and we've already planned several visitis to local castles. You just click the castle and it starts to navigate immediately. You even get 6 months' free speed camera warning (activation in one of the sub-menus).

VERY easy to set up and use (one of my worries with things). No doubt we will soon wonder how we ever did without it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
