Review of Acer Aspire 5738ZG

Excellent GPS package at great price

Advantages: Excellent sat-nav package at low price, well-spec'd handheld computer
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 guarantee. You see already the main economic advantage, especially when you compare it to the four-figure sums that car manufacturers charge for built-in sat-nav systems.... The Acer n35 is basically the n30 without BlueTooth capability...

Review of Acer N35 GPS

  PDA and GPS, all-in-one

Advantages: Great value for the money.
Disadvantages: No wireless connection

..., and you also wanted a GPS, they're the best choice. Price from about 300?(200 pounds) Why did you buy the Acer? In my case, my first idea was to add a GPS receiver to my old Palm M515. I didn't want to pay a lot, so my first choice was a cable GPS. Unfortunately, most I've found needed external power, so they're not useful in the motorbike or for trekking.. The M515 don't have bluetooth (too old), so bluetooth receivers were discarded too. The M515 only have one SD memory slot, so I couldn't have a card-type GPS and memory, so it were discarded, also. Two months ago I found two PDAs with a built-in GPS for a very interesting price, 300? (200 ponds). The Airis 509 and this Acer N35. After reading a lot of forum about GPS and PDAs, I found that both models were more or less the same quality, and their processor were similar in power. I...

Review of Acer N35 GPS

  MAP READING YOU CAN'T GET WRONG

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: 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 did not mean a thing to me. So two brain dead adults, when it comes to the technical side went looking for a Satellite Navigation System. We decided between us that we wanted a product that was a) within our budget, b) got us from...

Review of Acer N35 GPS

Acer

Advantages: Good all round multimedia laptop
Disadvantages: Bulky, low battery life.

...Acer is a major world leader in IT solutions and are now the third largest manufacturer of laptops worldwide. It's a great little device with plenty of features that I would highly recommend. This really is a wonderful piece of kit that should go well with many accessories because it really looks good. However, always think carefully as to whether you actually really need something before you buy it. We buy so many things nowadays that we don't really need.

Review of Acer Aspire 9813WKMi

Acer plays the Ace card again!

Advantages: Small, lightweight, great performer. Can handle some 3D games.
Disadvantages: None for the Netbook, but Linux version is rubbish.

...I have revised my review after using the netbook for a while. I purchased the Acer A150 because I was going on a cruise and wanted something small and light. I decided on the Linux version of this netbook for £235, the Windows XP version is around £269. The Operating System First thing I need to say about it is Linux, what a joke with its limited functions and the hassle you need to go through to add new features. I wanted DivX support so I could watch movies at night but after a few hours looking for a suitable program and drivers I gave up. Linux isn't as straightforward as Windows and in many cases you have to open up a console and type commands when you want to install or make changes to an installation. I gave up and Installed Xp pro. If you are purchasing a Netbook with Linux and all you want to do is surf the net...

Review of Acer Aspire ONE A150

Acer

Advantages: Good Value Product
Disadvantages: None

...Acer is one of the world leaders in IT systems. This is a good quality laptop that offers good value for money in the very short term. Although as with most products of this type, the value will deteriorate over time and should be able to get a cheaper version next year. It's a great device with plenty of features that I would highly recommend. This really is a wonderful piece of kit that should go well with many accessories because it really looks good. After using this product for a few months I have not so far come up against any reliability issues but only time will tell. I therefore would recommend the product. However, always think carefully as to whether you actually really need something before you buy it. We buy so many things nowadays that we don't really need. I've seen it for £530 (inc vat) from PC World although you...

Review of Acer TravelMate 7513WSMi

Well worth a second look

Advantages: Great value for money
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 (pocket PC) and a satellite navigation system all rolled into one. Whilst the PDA is not by any means a substitute for a PC or laptop, it does allow you to use general office applications. Bundled with the Microsoft Windows Mobile...

Review of Acer N35 GPS

GPS extraordinaire

Advantages: Very fast connection speeds
Disadvantages: None

...After purchasing a Pocket PC (HP hx4700) mainly for use as a calender assistant and portable web browsing device, I soon discovered that it could also be used as a portable Sat Nav device as well, allowing applications such as Tomtom to be uploaded onto it, and for those who are interested in light aircraft flying, like me, memory map is fantastic aviation GPS program which can be used on using actual CAA aviation maps with GPS data overlay for flight planning and tracking purposes. The one extra hardware add-on which is needed to allow tomtom and memory map to function is a GPS receiver device. I had previously purchased a Compact Flash card extension GPS receiver which plugged into the Pocket PC's existing ports directly, unfortunately, it was very poor at satellite tracking and position locking, taking several minutes to lock-on to...

Review of Holux M-1000 32 channel GPS receiver module

Be inspired by the Acer Aspire One A110

Advantages: Price, size, speed
Disadvantages: None so far

...--Background-- My wife has always moaned that she could never get onto the family PC as it was always being used by either my kids or myself. After doing a bit of research, she convinced me to buy her the Acer Aspire One netbook which she would use for web browsing and writing simple documents. I was a bit sceptical of the device, after all, to me it was just a cheap laptop. But, alas, she won and off I went to Currys armed with my credit card to begrudingly buy her one. --In the box-- The box in which the Aspire comes is very small. You'd be able to fit it under your arm and carry it no problem. As well as the netbook, there was a mains battery charger, a user manual and a recovery cd which I thought was strange considering there isnt a cd driver in the netbook!! --Initial Setup-- I must admit I found this impressive...
