Not perfect, but a lot of bang for the buck:
This is my first GPS, so I didn't have any preconceived notions about how the Navigon should stack up against other units. All of the basic GPS functions, the routing, traffic, speed limits, etc. seem to work great. I've been very pleased with its accuracy.

Great Item:
