This Sat-Nav is not the easiest to set up, and I can understand why people have given it a frosty response. I won mine in a competition and wasn't fussed about it one bit; always believing they were for poor and inexperienced drivers. I work in the motor industry and have used numerous GPS systems, and I rate it in the top 3. We never want to read instructions, believing we can fumble our way through, however if you treat the 7000 with this blase attitude it will appear to under perform and... (read more)

Absolute piece of rubbish. Maps out of date. Camera alerts inaccurate. If you cancel your subscription the Road Angel Navigator 7000 unit mysteriously stops working. Better use your money on a good A-Z. (read more)

Drove me mad, I thought it was broken. Managed to update the sat. nav. over the net using microsoft active sync (free download) and it has worked perfectly since that moment. The active sync program will ask you if you want to sychronise the device, say YES even though the instruction booklet says to... (read more)

Not a bad idea, but in practical terms very difficult to use. The instruction booklet is poor, with no index and no FAQ that tell anything useful. Vital information is obscure or missing completely. The unit is complex to use and far from intuitive. I am sure most buyers get nothing like the full value because it's so hard to use. If that wasn't bad enough, some map details are wrong as well.
A serious amount of extra thought needs to go into design both of software and the instruction book...
