    "Sanyo Easy Street NVM-4050 Too Many Minuses"

    by ssuga on December 23, 2007

    Pros: Lightning fast recalculations and super-sensitive anteannae.

    Cons: LOW battery life, RIDICULOUS on/off switch, WRONG pronunciation, NO a/c adapter, HORRIBLE customer service,

    Summary: · Forget about their claim of "...up to 7 hrs. battery life". After a full charge I get "low battery" warning after only 30 minutes of use.

    · When you turn main power switch "off" it loses your time/date settings every time. if, however, you leave it "on", it quickly drains the power. simply RIDICULOUS.

    · Text-to-speech pronounces "Dr." (Drive) as "Doctor". "Turn left on Maple Doctor". Entertaining but ludacrous.

    · Unit does not come with 120v AC adapter so to charge at home you have to connect to usb which gives a s-l-o-w recharge.

    · Don't make the mistake of trying to charge the unit when the main power switch is "off" because it does not take a charge unless the main power switch is "on".

    · Sanyo totally ignored my two e-mail queries...they obviously DON'T CARE about their customers.

    · There's no built-in choice of voices. Tom-tom came with male U.S., female U.S., male U.K., female U.K. this Sanyo only has one female U.S. voice.

    · "Keyboard" is not qwerty. It's a-b-c-d-e.... numbers go 0-1-2-3... plus, you cannot access lower case letters without using a trick. Sounds nit-picky but wait 'til you have to enter alot of entries. It's r-e-a-l-l-y annoying.

    · Does not display pictures but plays MP3's through it's tinny speaker which, by the way, does not provide enough volume to hear directions over car noise most of the time.
