We like:
Voice recognition; split-screen view; lane assistant; FM/TMC receiver; fingerprint reader
We don't like:
Initial software performance; text-to-speech; GPS signal strength; active cradle ports
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The Medion GoPal P4425 certainly brings something new to the table with its fingerprint reader and while its software takes some time to get going and its GPS signal strength could be better, it does provide a wealth of additional features for your hard-earned cash, including western European mapping, text-to-speech, a safety camera database and an FM/TMC receiver
