Navigon's line of portable navigation systems seems to follow the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, offering three different flavors with one to hopefully match your tastes and needs. For the gadget hounds and GPS enthusiasts, there's the Navigon 7100 with its advanced features like Bluetooth and traffic services, while the Navigon 5100 is more of a middle-of-the-road system for intermediate users. And now for beginners, there's the Navigon 2100. The entry-level unit has an attractive price point of $249, and includes text-to-speech functionality for speaking actual street names, which you don't often find at this price range.

by Texan62 November 2, 2008 2:09 PM PST: I have had the Navigon 21 for going on one year now. My wife and I drive a truck all over the U.S. This GPS works very well for our traveling. HOWEVER, what I have had a problem with is with the Navigon customer service. I had received an e-mail from Navigon with a 50% off on line order coupon on their lifetime traffic. I submitted the order with the 50% off code. My credit card was charged the entire amount. I called them about it and was told that since it was their first day of doing the half off sale, that there had been a glitch in their system. I would be refunded the other $50.00 within 2 to 3 business days. That was on Sep. 19, 2008. Since then I have called the Navigon service center MANY times and have been promised reimbursement withing 2 to 3 business days. Today is Nov. 2, 2008 and I still don't have my $50.00. I would recommed the Navigon 2100 for it's features. But I WOULD NOT recommend trying to get any kind of service after the purchase from Navigon.
