Other GPS brands

I'd read the first impressions before purchasing this unit....it wasn't very good. Also the monthly charges after the free trial period add another fixed cost.

Looks like Dash was correct in getting out of the hardware biz.

Can't go wrong, another toy for Christmas..

Has it ever occured to you buying a certain something that you thought was THE top-of-the-line product and spent your money proudly only to find out later that if you ahd waited for a couple days you could have gotten a much better product with better features, etc. (so much for that deal) It happend to me with mp3 players among other things.

What GPS product do you have?

Below is a link to a article from "The Latest in Technology" column by David Pogue who writes for the New York Times. The unit he was going to review is the new flagship GPS model from Navigon that was just released in November.

I have a 2009 GMC and would like to know if I can somehow load the Red camera GPS files in this in car system?

Looks interesting: http://www.gpspassion.com/forumsen/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=120644

Does anybody have any knowledge of this company? Their units are powered by ALK’s award-winning CoPilot Live satellite navigation software. I have used CoPilot Live 11 on my laptop.

Anyone have any info on the Freeway brand of GPS sold at Walmart? I have my Garmin already, was just wondering if the Freeway is any good...Thanks.....

Navigon doesn't officially offer a map for Australia but I was wondering if anyone knew of a third party vendor (i.e. POI factory) that offered Australia as an option. Thanks!

I am a serious GPS newbie, but I have the latest Navigon 7100 maps & Poi (Europe)on disc, and would like to load this content onto an SD card for use in my 2100. But I have had no luck....so far. Can someone assist me on how I might do this? Like I said I am a newbie, so basic lingo & instruction would help. Thanks for your consideration.

These are so cheap I was thinking of buying my wife who refuses to use a GPS one in hopes she may start using it.

These were originally sold for $299.

Available open box or refurb. Open box warranty 1 yr, refurb warranty 90 days. Shipping is $5-$15.

\strange but i have try to contact navigon as to weather they except third party poi i have sent 2 emails over the last week and neither has been replied too so it makes you wonder if they are still in business.
And if this is an exsample of there service heaven help anyone who has a service problem

Hi

Was wondering does anyone know the format for entering speedcamera data into the iGO8 version of software, been searching but not found anything as yet.

As I understand speedcamera's are different to regular POI's which use the KML format.

What reviews are there on this unit? I think it has 2006 maps in it now,,,what is the update for these like in cost? Is this unit a respected GPS? Is the satellite acquisition speed? Thanks, sv

I have a Navman F20 which has the US/Canada POIs as well as the usual roads, etc on an SD card. When I took it to England two years ago I bought a UK SD card and it worked fine. My questions is:

Is it possible to load POI files from this website to my Navman?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I was looking at the Asus MyPal A639 PDA w/ 3.5" LCD Screen, GPS Navigation at Walmart's web page http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=7801625
I am just wondering if anybody here has actually seen these in stores yet, or has any experience with one of these.

Navigon 7200T Review: http://www.gpsreview.net/navigon-7200t/

I understand, but havnot seen, that the new Verizon Blackberry Storm has vz navigator installed. Does this mean that it already is considered a gpsr and doesn't need any subscription or add on.
Thanks for any help provided.

I am looking for either a GPS smartphone with wifi or a PDA GPS with wifi. I have been reading some reviews on Pharos, but some of the reports on the software aren't real flattering. I am just wondering if anybody knows if the Garmin Mobile XT software would be compatible with either the Pharos Traveler 600/600e GPS Phone or Traveler 535X/V/E/P GPS PDA (PTL535X/V/E/P)?
