Dad buys Sat Nav

Having my dad just purchase the Sat Nav I can now give the full detailed verdict on the product. He was lucky enough to actually get this for free as his company paid for it but there have been several issues that we have had to take on with it so far.

The product is a brilliant idea for anyone who is bored of getting out a map at every corner or perhaps on the verge of a divorce because the wife is still giving out the wrong directions. The trouble is however that there are times where the Sat Nav is wrong and will lead you onto the wrong road and then shout at you for going the wrong way. There has even been an instance in which it attempted to lead us onto a road that wasn’t there.

Another issue with the product is that it is being used for the simplest of trips and because you are busy waiting for the voice to say “turn left” or “speed camera” it actually ends up taking longer than it would without it. I

In another country the Sat Nav can be really useful. When you are going abroad it can be very nice to here a nice English speaking lady telling you the road you are on and the way that you need to travel on.

Replacing them is not easy either which is why some form of Sat Nav Insurance will need to be taken out to avoid nasty replacement costs. Of course you could get gadget insurance as this actually sets out to cover you against other things like phones and games consoles. It is not always necesscary to take out that extra PDA insurance
