Gps Plus Information Guide

Reviewed By Matt (from Bay Area)

First let me say that I’m not one of those GPS users who expects to have a signal everywhere I go. After all, these satellites are miles above the earth floating in space! So while I expect to lose signals every now and then I don’t expect to never receive them.

My unit had some trouble picking up a satellite for the first time. The manual said 50 seconds but I waited a good 5 minutes. The manual also says something like it shouldn’t take more than 35 seconds to receive a signal if it’s cold, or 20 seconds if it’s warm. I waited minutes everytime I turned it on. Continue Reading »

On so many levels the Holux GPSmile 52 Plus looks like a winner. First is the stunningly low price. Second is all of the quality hardware.

HP iPAQ 310 GPS Review
For entertainment, there’s a built-in music and video player. Using the expansion slot, you can load up an SD card with your favorite MP3, WMA, WMV, and AVI music and video files, and check them out on the iPaq 310.

Cnet has reviewed the HP iPAQ 310 and gives out”The good: The HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion is a sleek portable navigation system with a gorgeous screen, text-to-speech functionality, and integrated Bluetooth. It also displays 3D building renderings and has multimedia capabilities. The bad: The iPaq 310 was pretty awful at route recalculations, and the voice prompts weren’t very loud or clear. The bottom line: Despite a sleek design and an attractive feature set, the HP iPaq 310 Travel Companion shows an ugly side with inaccurate route recalculations and poor voice directions that makes us say pass for now.”
