We like:
Neat and tidy handheld/GPS combo design; GPS receiver works well; reasonable price
We don't like:
Moderate-speed CPU; limited memory for user applications and backup to flash ROM; navigation software requires use of SD card slot; navigation software's interface and instruction regime could be improved; lacks Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
CNET UK judgement:
This well-priced Windows Mobile-based handheld/GPS combo could prove attractive, if you're prepared to overlook a moderate specification and some issues with the bundled navigation software
