Just bought this navigator from Navigon. It is super. I have previosuly had build in car navigation but this is much better. Phone works very well and have no or less disturbance from the car noice. Finds satelites fast and also navigation is very fast when you drive in another direction than is proposed. I have triedd this just to test it. It only takes 5 seconds befre it gives a new route. Highly recommended

Another great piece of design from Porsche; but I wonder if it’ll hurt them selling fitted GPS in new cars…
