 Bad Customer Support March 3, 2008
My Drive 140 came without the 2 Gb SD chip in the box. Customer support would not send me one. I had to supply my own SD chip and am now in the process of downloading maps from Pharos website - three per day limit! The GPS is underpowered so the display lags behind real-time - if you are using it to navigate to a location you can easily miss a turn. All in all, I'm very disappointed with the product, but even more with the customer support.
 Does not perform as advertised December 29, 2007
This $320 to $360 product does not perform as advertised. For E.g., it can not find a main street that even a cheap GPS finds! It is hard to work with as well. Hope somebody likes it, but not me.

 Can't believe the negativity December 6, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Wow, I can't believe the negativity. I got one a couple a months ago as an upgrade to a competitor's brand that I had used for many years. I love the blue tooth. I can make a call either from my contact's list or from the device itself. As far as routing capabilities it and I have disagreed a few times, but that is nothing unusual as I use to do that with my other one as well. For the most part I use a GPS for the "last mile", I know my way around my city, got that from using the other one and disagreeing all the time. I use a GPS in other cities that I am unfamiliar with as well.
I have read other reviews elsewhere saying that they had to press some small button to bring up the navigation, not true the big silver one works just fine for me. As for playing MP3's, I might use that at a hotel or something, but I have other device's dedicated for that. It does come with a pair of ear buds, sweet. The photo feature is easy to use and nice to be able show bigger pictures of something than just from your phone.
I like mine a lot, I also like the fact that I save a bunch of money from other companies would have wanted for a similar product.
This does not work November 23, 2007
I had one for two weeks.
1st It kept saying my home address was at the nearest corner.
2nd It would say you arrived at your destination way to early or way to late. Took you to the neareast street corner.
3rd Every time I tried to get help it was always closed.
I would not recommend this product to anybody.

It has a nice portable design, working without any issue. 4-inch diagonal touch screen is a big plus.
