4 out of 5 stars Works Great!I bought this thing after it finally dropped down in price to two hundred fifty dollars. Plus i got another fifty rebate and a free 128 CF card to boot! This thing works wonderfully and quickly locks on to several satellites.
i live in San Francisco and the only time it ever loses satellite contact is when I go thru the nearby tunnels but when I get out of it within 5 seconds it quickly locks back on! It tells you your speed, distance to go and will reroute you if you go off course from your desired destination! My only beef is that it doesn't tell you elevation which it could if the software allowed and if it locks on to at least 4 satellites (which it always does). I plan on calling navman and ask them if they plan on updating the software for elevation.
This this is so fun and is very accurate and its unbelieve about that i can put every public road in California, Nevada, Michigan and Minnesota onto a 128 Meg CF card! To fit the entire US on a CF card you will need a 1 Gigabyte CF which currently is about two hundred bucks at Costco.
Highly recommended for your Ipac. You will have lots of fun!

Works quite well. Comes with a suction cup for your windshield, power cable to work with car lighter, map software. Easy to install. You can set up favorite destinations or go to the map, click on map and select any spot as destination. Can include or exclude restaurants, hotels, etc. Turn on/off the verbal instructions. Tracks dead-on on the map. Can scale map up or down for details or big picture of where you are going. Pretty fast, usually only has to think 5 to 10 seconds to figure out new route. Will auto reroute if you don't follow directions exactly. Only downside is that the screen is a little on the small side, and not quite bright enough in sunlight. Takes about 15-20 seconds to acquire satellite signals. Sometimes I have to soft reboot to get it to work. Better than buying a new car to get navigation.
1 Out of 5 stars Hardware is great, software is bad., February 9, 2004

I have been using Navman 3450 since they came out. I upgraded my software to SP2, but the maps have major issues. Finding addresses that are located on routes is almost impossible. The problem is that most stores/shopping centers have a route address. There is no option of avoiding a specific road or highway. The worst part (possibly fixed now) is that this unit will tell me to do two u-turns one right after the other for no apparent reason. It made me do two u-turns while going from NYC to Boston on 95... I like the hardware, and if I could get it to work with other software - I would be fine with it. But the Navman software is the weak point. I understand that a new version is being releases... except they want to charge $150 for the upgrade.

While you are driving it suddenly stops and the screen becomes frozen. My iPAQ was H5500 which I ordered together with this Navman. Besides, it sometimes gave me wrong direction. I really don't want to recommand this item unless it fixes the problems.
