+ Simple to use. Compact.

Mick, Sunderland

+ Very Accurate, and route recalculation is superb and immediate, have used the product in England, Germany, France and Slovakia since puchasing and it has been spot on.

- If there is a way to plan routes and store them I haven't found it, which was a good feature on TomTom. Also I wider choice of voices would be nice, These arn't really bad points just personal preferances. So far I can't find fault with the unit.

Product Features

Type	In-Car

Traffic Message Channel (TMC)	Yes
Traffic Message Channel or TMC is a function that delivers traffic information to your GPS. It works using FM-RDS on a normal FM radio system. TMC allows you to accurately see any congestion or accidents that may have occurred on your planned route.
Bluetooth	Yes
Bluetooth is a technology for the wireless transfer of data such as contacts, photos and music between mobile phones, computers and a host of other Bluetooth enabled devices. Read more about Bluetooth on Wikipedia
Voice Control	No
A voice control function allows you to talk to the Satellite Navigation system and give it instructions. This can be very helpful when driving as it allows you to maintain full focus on the road.
Map Coverage	UK and W. Europe
Satellite Navigation systems normally come pre-loaded with a map that covers a portion of the world. Look for UK map coverage if you plan to only use your GPS in the United Kingdom.
Screen Size in Inches	3.5
Screen size is measured diagonally from corner to corner.
Dimensions (mm)	73.9x98.3x22.1
The size of the device in millimetres, in width x height x depth.

Photo Viewer	Yes
Ability to display your photographs and jpegs so you can show them off to your friends.
Touchscreen	Yes
Touchscreen technology allows you to move and click things directly on the screen using your finger or a stylus pen.
Weight (g)	144.6
The weight of the product in grams.
Memory Card Slot	Yes
Having a memory card slot allows you to save data to a memory card and then transfer it to another device. For example you may put a photo from your camera or mobile phone onto a memory card and then plug it into your printer to print directly. Memory card slots come in many formats: Compact Flash Card Memory Stick Duo Micro SD Card MMC SD Card SDHC Card
Built-in Camera	No
Some GPS products come with a built in digital camera that allows you to photograph the place you are at and then add it to your map. Next time you wish to visit that place you just tap the image and the Satellite Navigation system plots a route. This is great if you don’t want to have to remember street names.
Spoken Directions	Yes
Some Sat Nav systems have a range of voices that clearly speak directions to you as you approach your next waypoint. This is extremely helpful when you need to concentrate on driving, especially in busy cities or areas you are not familiar with.
Windscreen Mountable	No
If the Sat Nav is windscreen mountable it will come with an arm and a suction pad. Being able to mount your Satellite Navigation device on a windscreen is important as it offers greater visibility and as a result less distraction whilst you’re driving.
WiFi	No
Wifi allows you to connect your device to wireless routers or modems which allows you to connect to broadband internet.
MP4 Playback	No
MP4 is a video format, a bit like MP3 for video. Simply speaking, an MP4 player is an MP3 player that can play common video formats like MP4.
Release Date	28 Sep 2006
The date the product was originally made available for purchase.
FM Tuner	No
An FM Tuner allows you to listen to FM radio stations on the move. You can see a list of FM radio stations at Ofcom:“http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/archive/rau/radio-stations/analogue/analogue-main.htm”.
Map Storage Medium	On Board Hard Disk
The maps used to navigate using a Sat Nav are large and need to be stored on the device. They can either be stored using on board memory or using a memory card. A memory card is removable making it easier to transfer files to and from your satellite navigation device.
Monitor Type	In-Car
Hard Disk Capacity in GB	1
Hard Disk capacity is measured in GBs which stands for Gigabytes. A gigabyte is 1000 MB or megabytes. The more GB you have the more info like photos and music you can store.
Built-in Disc Player	No
Some products come with built-in DVD players or Blu Ray players.
