Navman S50 3D
No matter how hard we try to convince you satnavs are sexy, nobody really believes us. But Navman, with its S-Series navigation boxes sporting a flashy silver surround and brushed metal backing, is really trying to bring sexy back. Maybe that S stands ...

Navman S50 3D

Navman's much-vaunted NavPix – really just geotagged low-res snaps – are outdated in the age of the iPhone. We didn't like the voice commands either, which came a little late, especially when negotiating inner city routes

I bought an S50, the sales spiel was white is crisper,intelligent day/night display. With these colours I can't even see it in the daytime! and no school zones and none available for the S series. I certainly would NOT EVER buy a navman product or any oth...
Navman S50
I had the same problem with my S50 I download the latest version from navman 'service pack 1' when you click on downloads for the S50. Ran it and now works fine, give that a go
