Midwest Travel's Review of Navman iCN 630 Satellite Navigation System

20th May 2005

Overall Rating

4.5 stars

Good Points

Birds eye view is wonderful having seen flat maps on most GPS units, and the ability to page through different ways (say directions only) is quite good. Also, as compared to Hertz Never Lost, this doesn't come up at every major intersection telling me to go straight. It does come on every 10 minutes and tell you how far you have to go till the next turn however.


Bad Points

The "manual" is about worthless, and is flat out incorrect in places. The manual states that you can use a 64meg memory chip, up to a 256meg memory chip, but no larger. I put a 1 Gig memory chip in and it works wonderfully.


General Comments

With a 1 gig memory chip, I have loaded all US states except CA, NM, NV, UT, ID, and WY onto my Navman iCN630 Satellite Navigation System. The system takes about 40 seconds to load all the maps, the directions so far have been flawless (other than attempting to route me the wrong way up a few one way roads) but if I pass the one way turn up it will re-route me around that road. Also has been useful when I have had to turn around due to an automobile accident blocking the entire roadway. Compared to Hertz Never-Lost, it's been more accurate in finding a street address, the Points of Interest have been dead on, and even when it's been off by a bit, it's been closer than other navigation systems that friends have had. I bought it as a model year close out and got it for under $400.00 USD, so my viewpoint may be skewed by cost, but I'd call it a fantastic value.
