Why buy it? Make Pharos some money

by sniggol , Sep 12, 2005
Pros: Worked as described, briefly. Good car kit. Didn't drain the battery quickly.
Cons: Very fragile construction. Poor software (locks up constantly, and VERY slow) Extremely poor customer service.
This reviewer does not recommend this product.
Review: I bought this, before most other systems came out. It seemed to be pretty good, and I had a lot of fun using it. The external antenna jack is VERY fragile, and broke quickly. There was a software update for the mapping software on the Pharos...

Slightly problematic for me at times

by camsitka , Apr 26, 2005
Pros: Neat features, good product support
Cons: random problems with little explanation, requires external power supply
The Bottom Line: I don't know if my problems were unique. I do like the features it has to offer. I guess in the end you get what you pay for.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: I have a Dell Axim PDA with which I use the Pharos GPS receiver. The product is kind of quirky, and takes some getting used to in order for it to work properly. I think at times I had to plug everything in in a specific sequence, or the GPS wouldn't...

Don't waste your money

by travellinmom , Nov 14, 2005
Pros: Easy to use and navigate. Includes great features that are easy to use while driving.
Cons: Unreliable, software freezes. Never know when it is actually going to work properly.
This reviewer does not recommend this product.
Review: I bought this to work with my IPAQ PDA. Initially it worked fine, but now it is hit and miss. Sometimes the maps won't download the software constantly freezes. Good when it works but don't rely on it to do so.
