    4 Stars MAP READING YOU CAN'T GET WRONG Diamond review Review with images 13/10/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages directs you to your destination smoothly, great if you are on your own, no more trying to map read and drive, makes your journey safer

    Disadvantages Disadvantages sometimes gets the speed limit wrong, severe weather can make it slow by interferring with the satallite reception.

    ACER N35 GPS HANDHELD POCKET CHAUFFEUR My darling hubby bought me this about a month ago now, he was concerned as I have to travel around the West Midlands to different Spiritualist Churches, worried that I might loose my way when I travelled on my own, so he bought me a sat. nav. I'm afraid I am not a techno buff, so this will be my experience of using the Satellite Navigation System not the technical side. *** OUR SEARCH *** We had been looking around on the internet, shops and reading reviews on Ciao, but most of them were well over our price range and I have to say all the specifications ... more

    5 Stars Well worth a second look 22/04/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great value for money

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not as higher spec as others

    REASON FOR PURCHASE ******************************* I have for a long time been considering investing in a satnav unit, but had been constantly put off by the price. However, in February whilst trawling Ebay I came across the Acer N35 advertised as a PDA / Satnav combined. The concept of a combined unit appealed somewhat as I could also use the device as a pocket diary. PRICE ********* The recommended price for these is around the £200 mark. However, Ebay usually being good for a bargain, I bought a factory reconditioned unit for under £80. WHAT YOU GET ******************* Basically a PDA ... more

    4 Stars PDA and GPS, all-in-one Diamond review 08/06/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great value for the money.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No wireless connection

    I just wanted to own a GPS for a long time, and recently I could get this PDA with integrated GPS at last. First of all, I'd like to share with you why did I chose this one, among all the choices available. What's a GPS? GPS means Global Positioning System. A GPS receiver is a piece of hardware capable of calculate the position using the signals received from at least three satellites of the GPS network. Civil use GPS receivers can calculate our position in the globe with a precision of about 15 m. Why do you need a GPS? First , i'm a techie, so I love to have this kind of stuff. The second ... more

    4 Stars Excellent GPS package at great price 21/04/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Excellent sat-nav package at low price, well-spec'd handheld computer

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Advertising unclear: hidden costs of full European package

    When I decided too buy this product, I wasn't specifically looking for a handheld computer, I was after a decent (but inexpensive) GPS satellite navigation system; and the Acer n35 is not only the cheapest GPS-equipped handheld, it's actually cheaper than most dedicated sat-nav systems, so the fact that this device functions as a computer with numerous other facilities is a pure bonus! You can easily pay £400 for a dedicated portable sat-nav system like the Tom Tom Go, and similar amounts for sat-nav equipped handhelds, but the Acer can be had for as little as £240 brand new with full ... more

    3 Stars As a Sat Nav... 12/02/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Cheap Sat Nav, looks nice

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Quite slow needs resetting lots

    Well! I searched for a Sat Nav hoping to find something under £150 and was shocked to find this at £100. Really cheap price and seemed to come with a lot. I read that the Sat Nav included 'Points of Interest' such as hotels, restaurants and petrol stations and thought this was a great price to include all these features as well as the Microsoft Office package on the PDA. I was a bit bothered when it arrived though that it only came with a car charger, so how was I supposed to use the thing in my house? The only way of recharging the battery which was pretty much dead on arrival, was to sit in ... more

    5 Stars Incredible value usable navigation 19/05/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Incredible value usable navigation Size/weight great!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Occasional idiosyncratic turn directions.

    I was going to buy a Tom Tom Go on the basis of the rave reviews, so this was something of a leap in the dark, as I couldn\'t find too many reviews. But I am glad I took the risk, saving myself £150, and getting a PDA into the bargain. The device is very small and light, the fold-away antenna for the GPS being a neat idea, and makes it genuinely pocketable when it\'s not in the car. The cheap price isn\'t reflected in the build design and quality - it looks and feels well-designed, well-made and robust. The box comes with everything that\'s needed, including a case, a decent suction mount for ... more

    3 Stars GPS?PDA Combo. Good idea? 27/06/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Looks nice, good value for money!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Sometimes crashes for no reason, a bit slow to react.

    Well, i bought this since i needed it for my job (i'm pretty useless at directions), got it off of eBay for a tad under £170, this was about 3 months ago. The first thing i noticed when picking it up was that it was very light, although it still felt very robust and capable of dealing with what is required! Did as per the instructions and charged it up fully. This is my first niggle. The data cable has to be plugged into the PDA, and directly into the socket of this the charger plugs in. Means that when you are charging you have a trailing piece of wire around. Would it have really cost much ... more

    4 Stars Acer N35 19/07/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Light Weight Compact unit with no wires

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Need Microsoft Outlook to syncronise data (ie calender, contacts etc)

    I bought this unit from Amazon for £249.99 including Destinator Software, because I did not want any wires cluttering the car. The craddle can be placed on the windscreen or dashboard at a convenient place for you. So long as the antena is not obsturcted you will get a clear signal every time. Worth mentioning if you have a new car with one of those blue tints that repel UV light then you may find it hard to get the signal and have to purchase an additional blue tooth reciever. The unit is very simple to use and can be controlled with a finger tip (though not whilst driving). I installed the ... more

    2 Stars not hard enough for me 02/10/2006
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages destinator software

    Disadvantages Disadvantages not very robust or hard wearing.

    i have used the acer n35 hand held computor for over 12months. the destinator software is satisfactory and does get you from a to b without any fuss but is not as good or as durable as some of the other navigation software titles. the destinator maps can be viewed in 2d, 3d or birds eye view, i found the 3d view to be the best as you will see where your going much clearer but to get the street names to come up on screen you will need to see the 2d view. compared to the tom tom software the views do compare favourably however the points of interests are included but creating your own or editing ... more
