Worth the price

(4.00 out of 5) by firstcavjimmy on Feb 8, 2005

Pros: Good value, voice commands, very good detail on map.
Cons: Fails to meet the "2 to 5 meter" accuracy on the GPS. Software mapping errors.
The Bottom Line: It's okay, just don't believe everything you read on the box.

I had the opportunity to compare the Earthmate heads up against the Navman (which uses Rand McNally ...
