PCMag just published a review of the NavMan iCN750, the only in-car navigation system that comes with an integrated digital camera. They didn’t think it was worth $700 since the 1.3 mp digital camera wasn’t all that great and the other features just didn’t make up for the price tag. Read the full iCN750 review.
In an increasingly competitive market, many manufacturers are adding features such as MP3 players, photo viewers, and live traffic reports. Music and images are nice to have, but they don’t really help you navigate. In fact, some of the newer Magellan models (like the RoadMate 3000T and 860T), will not play MP3 files and navigate at the same time. So why pay for a feature in a navigation device when you can’t use it while navigating? You’d be better off with a separate MP3 player, which you probably already own.
As a GPS navigation device, the Navman iCN750 is easy to use. On my vacation, it provided accurate, reliable directions and got me to my destinations without any hitches. The NavPix feature is interesting, but at $799.95, there are better GPSs available for the same money.
