The unit is built with travel in mind given its thin design, making it easy for mobile professionals to carry in a briefcase when on business trips.

3 out of 5 stars A little out dated   September 4, 2008

Item recieved has software and maps from 2005, and is a little slow. It also doesn't pick the fastest routes like advertised due to, in my opinion old software.


1 out of 5 stars worst product I ever used!   December 5, 2007

It is the worst product I ever used. I bought it in Dec 2006. I used it for just several times during the following half an year. Both its software and hardware suck! Its map and directions have too many errors. Not clear voice reminder to turn. Display is very confusing. And it dies from time to time. I have to reset it for many times when I was driving on the highway. In May 2007, I found its all maps disappear automatically. I have to send it back to reinstall. I got it back after a long time. Then I used it again in Nov 2007. I found that it does not have all the maps. It has the map around my home, but no map around my destination. Anyway, I used it for half of the trip, but when I was on the highway, its screen became black, no display, no any voices. I cannot turn it on/off. I cannot reset it again. It is totally dead!!!!!!!!!! I guess I used it for less than one year, totally less than 30 hours, but now it is totally dead! I even hate to waste time on sending it back to fix it! I decide to buy a garmin gps instead. Never buy any product from this company.

I am very happy with this product! Not as nice as some more expensive, but if you need a solid gps for in car use, this is the one!

I bought it brand new and I will tell you, this thing is piece of junk. It's the equivalent of that 8 Ball toy you shake for your fortune.

Trust me, pass onto another GPS.

The pure seething aggravation you feel for this thing will outweigh the money you save. I can't even in good conscious put it for up sale, because I know the person will ask me for their money back by the next day.

The manufacture's website is total joke. With non-existent customer service. Save for another month and buy a TomTom.

This gps freeze a lot. The softwares has bug. Its has a low CPU 266 mhz which mean it take more time to do things which other gps with a cpu 400+ mhz does instantly. This GPS you will have to do a lot of resetting as a normal use.
