Customer Rating: Summary: DON'T NEED NO STINKIN' GPS Comment: Bright sunny Saturday, headed to the mall looking for a pedometer. National electronic store had a Sidewalk Sale. Nosed around looking for a pedometer... mebbe.
The gal sitting beside the table [guarding it] asked if I had a GPS & that they had a clearance on a GOOD ONE !! I professed I didn't have nor need one. She ignores that remark and proceeded to show me what they had anyway.
The more she explained her own travel experiences, the more
interested I became. She proceeded with a thorough SHOW & TELL.
Take home now and bring back tomorrow if I didn't like, she said.
Yet I hesitated, thanked her for the demo and headed home.
That evening got on the internet looking for GPS stuff. Found AMAZON had the "Pharos 150"... ON SALE NO LESS !!
The clincher was it emulated a "Tom-Tom" which my son has and travels all over the countryside in another state. Says his "Tom-Tom" did everything but wash the dishes !!
Of course his was 3-4 times the cost of this one.
Went ahead and bought the Pharos 150. Am totally delighted with it. It even talks !
The GIRL barks directions and is very persistant. The several maps are clear, bright & detailed.
Has latitude & Longitude~ 'walking mode'[I am a hiker]~ flat map and 3D map mode as well. So many features it is hard to list.
Comes in several different colors too !
Mine is a perfect midnight blue.
Only fly in the ointment: the dash mount is cumbersome and [for me] doesn't work with my full size GM late model car.
Compact 4" square with 3 1/2" screen and only 5/8" thick.
Fits nicely in coat pocket when out hiking.
Truly a delight to own. Would buy this one again.
Am considering to even give as a gift.
Highly recommend this Pharos 150.
AMAZON'S price couldn't be beat,IMO. I have dealt with them several times over the last 2~3 years. Always confident of a good experience with AMAZON.
Go ahead...grab the Pharos 150 from Amazon. You will love it.
Customer Rating: Summary: GREAT PRODUCT Comment: THIS WORKED GREAT AND THE PRICE WAS PERFECT. I WILL BE NEEDING ANOTHER ONE AS GIFT. Customer Rating: Summary: As advertised Comment: Thanks. I was waiting patiently for a GPS system that was under $100. The Pharos was $99.00 with free shipping. The unit arrived and does what it is intended to do. There is a CD in place of a printed manual which makes it tough to answer a quick on-the-spot question but I'll deal with it. Overall...I am happy with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone who needs a no-frills, easy to use GPS. Customer Rating: Summary: Great GPS Comment: This a great GPS for the price. I have had no problems and it is very accurate. It tells me when to get ready for turns and when to turn. It also announces when you are at your destination and tells you which side of the street it is on.
Getting lost is easy. Pharos helps make finding your way even easier. Using intuitive text-to-speech technology, the Pharos Drive GPS 150 makes it easy to keep your eyes on the road when looking for a specific address. It will help you find you way with voice prompts and turn-by-turn spoken instructions that include name of the street or highway. The large 3.5" color touch screen LCD clearly displays the preloaded U.S. street level maps and navigation routing.
