wynyard's Review of Navman iCN 550 Satellite Navigation System

21st Jan 2006

Good Points

Very easy to get started.


Bad Points

Keeps hanging: only 5 digit post code search: could not find intersection between A19 and A64: Icon to indicate if a radio signal is being received does not function as per maunal: Lots of unsightly wires with TM system and need to be under power.


General Comments

While the Navman ICN 550 unit is very neat and easy to get started the 5 digit post code search is a little primitive particularly as Up My Street have it.
While on the A34, my system indicated a traffic problem ahead and then attempted to re-calculate a route to get me around this: it did this for over 30 mile until I eventually arrived at the M40 and knowing that I had to go North I turned North, the Navman had given up giving any directions by this time as it was still trying to re-calculate the route! After a couple of minutes it realised it was back on route and kicked in again. I had cause to go to York and wished to get to a point on two A roads but it could not find these. All in all a bit primitive and if this is one of the best then the others must be pointless. I do not believe that this kit can cost more than £50 to put together so someone is making very big money out of these.
