- Don't Buy this at any priceThe software often picks route 100's of miles out of the way for no reason. You cannot pick your own route at all. The Navman 12v connector is VERY weak. Mine broke within a few days. The GPS pulls the Palm's battery down in no time at all - 2 or 3 hours. Navman's web site states the 12v cord powers the Palm too - not so according to their tech support. I have recently purchased a Magellan gold handheld GPS that works great. I can even drive Delorme software on the Palm from the Magellan. ... Read More

- GPS great / Software terrible4 stars since the included SW is so terrible. I bought "Delorme Street Atlas USA 2004 Handheld" to run on my M125. Works great.
Navman does tend to eat batteries, but what Palm add-on doesn't.
Original SW was so bad, it couldn't catch up driving down the road. I had to pull over to let it catch up so I could turn the Palm off.
GPS module works great, but included SW will make you mad.

- Don't know what these other users are complaining about!I think this is fantastic! The only down side that I can think of is having to upload your trips beforehand. But that is a limitation of the handheld, not this device. I took a trip from Upstate NY through Philly to the Jerey shore. And back. Another trip to Washington DC. This performed flawlessly for what it was designed to be. Beeped a little before my turns or exchanges. Tracked pretty well and only lost signal a couple times, ony to regain it moments later. I bought this along with a rebate ... Read More

- Works for meI read a few of the reviews before I purchased this model, some good, most bad. I had a few reservations about the item myself @ first, and initially rated it only a 3. But after using it alot locally, and then travelling South with it, I find nothing wrong, with this GPS, or the software. I recently travelled to a town called Littleton, NC, where only about 700 people live according to the 2000 US Census. All of the local roads, where there. If a small town like that has that kind of detail, then ... Read More

- hardware is fine, software [is bad]To start with the positive: The unit actually does a good job getting a gps position and displaying it on the map. I use it with the Palm m515 and it was a very tempting combination given the low cost of the unit (100 USD, now it's even cheaper). It came with a device for mounting it on the windshield of the car and a recharger that fits in the cigarette lighter and that all works fine.
It seems an obvious thing to combine a gps receiver with a color screen palm pilot that has both memory and ... Read More
