GREAT - especially for the money and the maps

By Lee Rolfe (20/03/2008)

Pros: doesnt cost you your first born child, small , ease of use
Cons: power cable connection and speaker

PROS-Excellent size, small, great maps, mulitiple alerts via voice, alarm and split screen ensure you never miss a turn. Split screen shows you not only where and when to turn but also where not to turn at complex intersections. 24 Maps in Europe can't be beat.
CONS-power cable stick out of left side not the bottom of device, this can obscure vision one and two could be prone to damage if cable is tugged on. Connection would be better on the bottom of device. Speaker is also in the rear of the device. It is easy to hear when in hand but in the window with traffic, kids and outside noise can become difficult. Speaker would be better on the left side or front of device.

Very minor cons, all in all, WELL worth the small price tag. Short of the expensive bells and whistles but do we REALLY need all of those, its a GPS and for that is is EXCELLENT!!
