Hi.If my 2100Max comes with free lifetime traffic, why do I need this. What am I missing.ThanksPS: Because I had to rate it, I'm rating it in the middle. Since I actually have a question about it, I'm surely not rating this high:-)
This is my first GPS but it just seems to take along time to calculate routes and we live in the country and doesn't work well in the country. Doesn't recignise 911 address. I like the user friendly screen and settings.
This product I received pay for itself,especally in traffic problems.It tells you which road to take to get around the problem.
I love my Navigon 2100. these things rarely happen in Georgia and never in August. wtf.amusing: I don't know how the GPS converts the FM signal it gets for the traffic or how the designated FM station inputs the information but some of the incident messages are quite funny even if they are inaccurate.
when I discovered that I could get Lifetime Traffic for $20 I jumped on the deal. a day or so after that I got another warning about packed snow on an interstate. it's not a perfect GPS but for the money I paid it does the job I need it to.
a few days ago I got a message about an avalanche warning in the area. Overall I'm quite satisfied with the service I'm getting. had I paid the $60+ that some retailers were asking I'd probably be ticked off.pros: ability to see and avoid traffic all over the city, subscription is lifetime, no yearly feescons: today when there was an interstate closure due to a car fire the service/unit asked if I wanted a new route to "avoid traffic jam" then it tried to re-route me right back onto the closed interstate.
the problem. :)
I bought a Navigon 5100 when it first came out -- great little GPS, with the lane view feature. I contacted their "customer service" with a problem and was basically told to pound sand. Sprung for the traffic card so I could get the updates, and now Navigon has abandoned the U.S. market, running back to Germany and leaving all of us with soon-to-be-obsolete devices. Thanks, Navigon. Don't come back.
