Advantages: Easy to use, nice and small
Disadvantages: None
Firstly the price stated above is way higher than you can get it for, many large retail outlets are selling this same mdoel for just 100 pound.
The unit is very simple, nice and small so can be carried around easily, although a carry case is something you have to buy afterwards, it is not included in the box. Its thin enough to slip into a pocket which for me is important as you dont want something large and bulky.
The operation of it is very simple, just a case of pressing a few buttons and you are ready to go.
The gps reciever is mujch better than older units so you wont be sat waiting for ages for it to tell you where you are, simply turn it on and a few seconds later it is ready to go.
The unit comes with an sd card slot so if you ever did want to go aborad with it you could buy extra maps, however this does cost quite a bit to do so, and would be better buying it with them on initially.
Overall a very simple unit to use, if you want a sat nav which is made by a reputable company that just has uk mapping and speed cameras then this is for you.
Summary: If you want just a uk sat nav then you wont go wrong with this

- 13/01/09 'although i do not personally own the units'...so why in your earlier reviews do you say 'the traffic option isnt fully acurate, however when i purchased it i was made aware of this.'. |

- 11/01/09 I work with sat navs/stereos and a lot of in car technology products. I use them on a daily basis and am constantly product testing them, so although i do not personally own the units, i have had a great deal of experience with many and believe that this experience enables me to give a valid review. I also am able to see how many are returned so can comment on long term reliability on a vast array of units rather than just one that somebody has owned personally. |

- 11/01/09 Have you owned any of the seven sat navs you have reviewed today? The reviews do not read that way. Reported to abuse. |
