Great GPS unit
I purchased this GPS at a clearance for only $5.00! Yes, eat your heart out! I purchased the Jornada 548 for $100 off of Ebay so I have a great GPS unit for only a few bucks. When I started using the unit, there were several things that I desired in a GPS unit that the software would not do. For instance, I live in a rural area and many of the places that I go are...

Don't buy this GPS
Purchased this GPS to connect to my HP548. Unit was very easy to set up and install software. Map files are very large so for any long distance traveling you will need a larger CF card for the map files. I purchased a 256mb just for this purpose. Initially the unit kept saying to recheck the power connections when I tried to get the GPS to sync with the...

Purchased this GPS to connect to my HP548.Unit was very easy to set up and install software. Map files are very large so for any long distance traveling you will need a larger CF card for the map files. I purchased a 256mb just for this purpose. Initially the unit kept saying to recheck the power connections when I tried to get the GPS to sync with the satellites. When it finally did sync with 3 of the 8 possible satellites it would intermittently lose sync with them making the unit basically worthless.

I purchased this GPS at a clearance for only $5.00! Yes, eat your heart out! I purchased the Jornada 548 for $100 off of Ebay so I have a great GPS unit for only a few bucks.When I started using the unit, there were several things that I desired in a GPS unit that the software would not do. For instance, I live in a rural area and many of the places that I go are not physical addresses. The upgrade software enables the user to store locations based on GPS coordinates. It cost $29.00 to upgrade and was definitely worth the investment. As far as reliability, it is solid. It locks onto the satellites quickly and has never lost the signal. Maps takes quite a bit of space, so I bought a 256 MB flash card and am only using a small amount of that for the 2 maps that I store on my Jornada. I have not taken a trip with it yet, so don't know how it will do at mapping locations between 2 separate maps. All in all a great unit. I couldn't be happier! |
