TruPleasure ( Chicago, IL United States ) I purchased a Navigon unit for myself and absolutely loved it. I found it to be much more accurate than Mapquest and since you receive voice instructions in addition to a realtime map it is extremely easy to follow the directions. My sister asked to borrow my unit because she was traveling out of state and wanted to try it out. She said she had always wanted a navigation unit because of the frequent travel she does in her car, but her husband was extrememly skeptical about their accuracy. My sister fell in love with my Navigon and borrowed it several times. Finally, on a trip with her husband, he was able to see the unit in action and counldn't believe that the Navigon was so accurate right down to the landmarks and restaurants it point out. They loved it so much that I bought them this one for Christmas (so I could get mine back). I appreciate the updates that keep the unit timely and even in rather rural areas the Navigon has gotten me to the door every time. It's a great navigation system as well as phenomenal source of information for Zagat rates hotels, restuarants and area attractions.

V. Kanamatareddy ( Cleveland, OH ) I have been using Navigon 5100 for the last 6 months. I am not really satisfied with this due to following issues.
1)Searching for points of interests is a complex task. I dont find the required POIs that I look for
2)User interface is not really great. Touch screen does not respond few times.
3)Route calculation and recalculation is not faster. It takes few seconds before it shows the route. I end up waiting for it.
However, the only thing that I liked is the lane assistance. I have used Mio C230, Garmin NUVI in the past. I feel they are far better than this Navigon unit. Mio C230 is really good in POIs and route recalculation.

K. Ferrill The Navigon 5100 is the perfect GPS for my family. I have had one for 2 years and love it, and I just got one for my parents for Christmas. There are tons of points of interest already loaded which is great for finding new places while driving around. When difficult intersections or roads are encountered, the Navigon not only tells you what you should do, but also shows you which lane to be in with a picture. The ease of entering addresses and searching for places is great. I also like that I can switch the view from portrait to landscape to be able to see a wider or longer view of the area. The battery does not hold a charge for more than an hour at full brightness, but if you use it in a car, you just plug it in the lighter. There is a feature that allows you to save your current location which is great for parking downtown and shopping, then finding the shortest route back to your car because the GPS can give walking or driving directions. The Navigon does like to read certain abreviations which can make you laugh when you are told to go to the "A-T-L" airport instead of Atlanta or A.T.L. airport.
