Equipped with a bright and vibrant four-inch TFT color touchscreen interface, automatic route calculation to any destination, and turn-by-turn voice-prompted direction, you'll never lose your way with the FineDrive 400.

NAVTEQ is a leader in premium-quality digital map data. The current, thorough maps preloaded on the FineDrive 400 will help you find your way in the big city or in a small, rural town. NAVTEQ's digital map database is like no other because it is actually built on the roads of the United States and Canada with precision. Each day, highly trained field researches drive and re-drive highways, streets, alleys and rural roads. Armed with a high level of training and proprietary technology, NAVTEQ researchers have built a database from a driver's view. You'll get much more than simple road geometry. These preloaded maps contain dozens of road attributes for every mile (or kilometer), ranging from speed restrictions to lane configurations. Plus, the NAVTEQ digital maps are loaded with millions of Points of Interest (POIs) with turn-by-turn directions to restaurants, gas stations, shopping and more.

This unit comes with an expandable SD memory slot, and it boasts a sleek, distinctive style. The FineDrive 400's compact and portable design makes it easy to take from vehicle to vehicle. Just plug it in, switch it on, and it's ready to go -- no downloading is required. The touchscreen makes it easy to input a destination or select from a huge number of preprogrammed POIs. Once your destination is established, the device even allows you to select from multiple route options, such as quickest, shortest, highway/local, toll road, and carpool. Various display options -- North-up/Heading-up, Day/Night View, and 2D/3D -- lets you customize your view to meet your preference or setting. And if the kids keep asking you, "Are we there yet?" you can give them the automatically calculated estimated time of arrival and distance remaining on your trip.

Quit using those cumbersome, foldable paper maps and get to your destination faster with the Fine Digital FineDrive 400 portable GPS navigation system. With it, you'll be ready for just about any North American road adventure.

I purchased this GPS for $400 last November. Overall, I'm happy with it, it is very easy to use and it has been accurate. I don't need a fancy GPS, this one is economical and gets the job done for me. The screen is big and bright, I have it mounted on my SUVs windshield using the provided suction holder, and I have no problem reading the display from my driving position. It is a good unit for the money.

This review is from: Fine Digital FineDrive 400 4-Inch Portable GPS Navigator (Electronics)

I purchased Fine Drive 400 a couple weeks ago because I don't want to spend a lot of money on it. This unit is really easy to operate and easy to read. In addition to map, it shows time and miles left to the destination in a screen. It also has speed alert feature, enabling me to save extra money. It was just yesterday to drive freeway. GPS unit let me know when I exceeded speed limit. Police passed my car just a couple minutes after I reduced speed. The screen is bright enough to clearly see it even in full sunlight.

Only the minus point is that I cannot play MP3 files in using navigation function.

I bought the FineDrive 400 two months ago. I use it every day. The adjustable display is great in all lighting conditions. The mapping system is amazingly accurate, knowing what street and hundred block I am on within 10 feet or so. The navigation section guides you to a location via voice command and on-screen display.

It has preloaded maps of USA and Canada with major attractions like parks, museums, hotels, restaurants by the thousands. Once you buy the unit, there is no monthly cost.

If you are planning a long trip, drive/make deliveries for a living or just want help with everyday driving- this is a great tool. I like it better than the TomTom.
