Navigon 2100 MAX ..is perfect!
For starters, the Navigon GPS System includes many accessories. There is a USB cable, software installation CD, a quick setup poster, an AC power cable and of course the device itself. Many manufacturers do not include an AC power cable so it is a nice little extra. This GPS system does have a larger screen size than most, 4.3 inches, and is bordered by a black plastic frame. There is also a slot for a 2 GB SD card. The display is nice and bright for viewing during the day and the night mode reduces the level of brightness so it is not annoying.
The place the Navigon GPS System really surpasses all others is the on-screen graphics and the ease with which it can be programmed. It also has several options that can be selected to show you think like street names, speed, compass, length of trip, arrival time. Programming this GPS is like most others and based by entering either a town and state or zip code followed by a street name. It also, like many others, allows you to search for points of interest and lets you choose them based on many criteria even down to the fact of whether or not they have public bathrooms or public phones.
The Navigon GPS System has more features than can really be listed here. It has a built in traffic receiver and external antenna to get traffic reports that could slow your trip. It has voice recognition that allows you to operate the system without touching it. After saving a location as a favorite your can record yourself saying it and from then on it will recognize that voice command. It, of course, offers multiple destination routing and allows you to save these routes for use later. Many people will also appreciate the logbook feature that is comes with. It is great to keep detailed logs of business trips, miles traveled during it, when I did it. It will even store the data in an Excel spreadsheet right on the unit.
