Hi,
Just acquired one of these. Does anyone else have one / experience of one?
So far during my brief testing.
1. Very quick satellite acquire time, around 30-45 seconds from cold through my Ford heated screen.
2. Accuracy is good
3. Instructions are clear and detailed but not polite.
4. Interface is poor.
I would have liked different screen options - can't find any just three levels of zoom and I would have preferred to be able to see speed on the main screen rather than having to click on the satellite icon to see your speed.
5. Only short postcode search, think it works on 5, so street name and town still have to be entered.
6. NO mains adaptor or bicycle clamp supplied, these are optional extras
7. Has some POI already installed, but no cameras - have to buy the upgrade.
Cheers
Raj |

I've got one!
I've a PNA500T with European Maps.
Not a bad unit, but I've also got a Nuvi which is really nice and dinky. My wife uses the Medion when she can be bothered.
Cheers
