I bought an iCN550 in Jan2006 for it's graphics and European maps, however I'm now having regrets. Confused

1) Editing "Favourites" is really difficult so I'm trying to break into the DAT file using ActiveSync, but I don't know what editor to use. I tried TomTom's CheckPoint 3 but the Navman did not want to know.

2) There are only 25 POI layers. I had hoped to load 50 POI layers. Navman has very little support for this product let alone software updates.

3) Each POI layer gets truncated at 99 locations, despite the 2.2GB free memory. For some layers this does not even get past "A" in the alphabet.

4) I'm trying to work out how to get the unit to speak speed limits rather than just making a ping sound. It must be possible.

5) There seem to be very few forums for Navmans. Is this dead product?

If anyone has any positive experience of the iCN550, I'd really like to know as I'm considering dumping it. Rolling Eyes
