Decent GPS but Suction Cup base is USELESS:
The GPS works good. I haven't had to use the traffic yet so I can't comment on that. The suction cup base is useless if you want to attach it to the disk onto your dash. (If you use the windshield, you'll be fine) I won't stick. Or more exactly it won't stay stuck. Within a minute or two it will work loose and just stand there. Until you touch it, then it falls over. Or better yet, you take a turn and it rolls off of the dash. I cursed and yelled at it and my wife and friend both tried it to. They couldn't... more info
Navigon 2100 max review:
To keep it short and sweet, the 2100 max unit was returned. I bought it for my spouse who is not technically inclined. I feel that she was a good test subject for this review, which wasn't my intent as I only wanted her to have an easy to use personal navigation device (PND). The Navigon 2100 max has many great features for the price, but also too many issues and wasn't worth the frustration. Using it made me feel like I was beta testing a development product. Maybe a firmware update will fix the problems.... more info
Navigon??:
We purchased the Navigon for our travels this winter and am very disappointed. It will get you to the town you are going to but if you follow the directions you will not arrive where you are intending to.
Would not recommed the purchase of this product, if I can find a way to return mine I will. Certainly not worth the $$.Navigon 7100 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator
Worst GPS! Not Recommended:
Real quickly I just want to point out that the device is good as it completes what it says it is supposed to. The problems start immediately it is ridiculously slow at making a route. If you go off track via different road or highway recalculating time takes about 45 seconds compared to 3 to 5 on the Garmin. The system is very sluggish and updates at about 1 frame every 2 to 3 seconds which makes it very inaccurate. Everything seems to be so cluttered and text is very small so you can't see much even though... more info
