It’s Pretty Okay – Chad – Tulsa, Oklahoma
Overall a decent product for vehicle navigation. I use with my Dell Axim X50v PDA. My only complaint is that it is only useful for road trips's. Do not think in this case, geocaching, camping, hiking, or backpacking. There is no support topographic map, if you buy third party software (and I hope it works). Host software may also be a bit 'more user friendly. First steps of a signal can sometimes be difficult.

After receiving this product, now on my Samsung i700. Well, it turns off, but after the match with him for about 15-20 minutes, I was working on it. Now the real test, of course, when you leave the road. Here is my experience with this device.
So here I am over the foot of the house and remember that there is a Universal Car Charger with that so that I look in the box and not on my phone! I call the company,Pharos, and tell me how to call Samsung for an adapter. In essence, he said only: "They also own." Strike 1!
Well, I'll just carry a spare battery just in case. OK I go is tracking. I plot a destination, the journey ahead and told me to turn. All rights are good? Wrong! My phone is configured for battery and after a few minutes the phone goes into power saving mode switches, and basically save. So I turn on the phone again, and the GPS receiver does not workmore! Strike 2!
Then you must ask themselves: "Well, what have you done?" Answer: I start my phone number. Do not worry, it's better. I finally turn the intelligent power saving function so that my phone remains in her head and let my battery (I mean who would not?). But remember, I'm smart … I brought an extra battery! So I drive, is the monitoring is to tell me where to go, and when I was in my path to the destination. The party I expect when they meet this newSite decides to call me. Hmmm … "So what happened?" That's right, decide which GPS device drop dead! Strike 3!
Well, at least did not disable the phone functionality.
So if you're in the market for a product that works well with the Samsung i700 and not a "UNIVERSAL" have car charger, this product is definitely for you! Be sure to tell your friends. And remember, "Friends Do not Let Friends Buy shit!"
PS Buy a city / state map, aremuch cheaper!
