Katana II review

katana-ii-sanyo.jpg
The Sanyo Katana II that we featured on Navigadget recently got a short review and failed the class in GPS functionality.

The inclusion of an embedded GPS is unusual at this price point, but to use it you must download Sprint’s implementation of Telnav’s GPS software and pay a subscription fee of $10 a month or $3 a day. I found the service often unpleasant to use.

It sounds like Katana II has great looks but it lacks the ability to provide sufficient navigation thanks to Sprint’s slow download speeds and long TTFF.
