After some wierd problems not being able to load the detail maps onto it (solved by clearing all user data from it). I plotted a route to the Sainsburys in London Colney (strangely it didn’t know about the one in St Albans).
Apart from trying to send me down a road that’s blocked off it did a really good job. It’s quite fun blindly following it’s directions to see where it takes you!
The speaker quality was a little poor but I rectified this by lowering the volume a little (needed to update the firmware and then hold down the “speak” key).
The off-route re-calculation is excellent, it realised quickly and got me back on track in a couple of seconds. I’m looking forward to taking it out on a longer journey!
The sattelite acquisition time (after we’d finished shopping) was so fast I didn’t notice it!
I’ve put in a couple of avoidances (mainly St Albans centre because of the traffic) so it’ll be interesting to see how it routes me around them.
