Despite the incredibly cheap price tag that this gps unit has it is still a good investment. Aimed at outdoors enthusiasts this unit should not be confused with a sat-nav, and is not really for road use. Large backlit display makes for easy reading and the navigation screens are very good and are especially helful when walking, hiking etc. The supplied maps are not very detailed, and should not be relied upon for accurate navigation, I would suggest buyin Mapsend Topo uk, this package is very deatiled and gives you all the deatil you could possibly want for any outdoor activity. The buttons allow easy operation, and moving through the navigation screens is a straightforward proces. Functions like the electronic compass and trip Oedometer add to the units functionality. One downside is the small 22mb memory, it may be worthwile investing in a better unit that has sd card compatability to allow more data storage.
