Default 3 in 1 GPS review at Dutch Pocket PC Club

The Dutch Pocket PC Club just finished an extensive GPS navigation video review with the Destinator, Tomtom and Alturion systems. The review can be read and seen here in Dutch. Pictures are also included in this link. For a direct link to the video click here. You can also see the results in a spreadsheet translated from the site.

What a terrific review. Highly recommended if you want to get seasick. Jason, I know some customers for your video book. :lol:
And... great idea to take your baby with you on a trip like this. Certainly helps to decide the best navigation program.

Hi hans,

As I understood it from the reviewers, the baby was only second choice for this role. The mother was not able to join them to give directions that were in clear contradiction to the instructions given by three navigation systems. This certainly would have made the test more realistic and would undoubtely have tested the recalculation feature of all three systems in a more thorough way

However, life is full of compromises, and it was a supurb review (especially if you read dutch) anyway !
