Navman GPS 3420 for iPAQ

Small dedicated handheld GPS units from companies such as Garmin and Magellan have become very popular and very affordable over the past few years.

Highly detailed maps ; Great use of iPAQ display ; Sophisticated routing capability ; Navigation with voice instructions ; Built-in ...

A bit bulky compared to dedicated handheld GPS units (like eMap) ; Insert for CompactFlash slot difficult to remove

As a veteran GPS user, I had high expectations of the Navman, and it didn't disappoint me. I'd still use my eMap in more "hostile" environments (like ...

I Purchased the Navman 3420 for the iPAQ after becoming extremely dissatisfied with the Pharos Ostia GPS product. See my review of that product. Like the Pharos system the routing software wants to choose you route for you and may not always be the...
