no full postcode search makes it useless in rural areas


Cannot differentiate between a gradual bend in the road and a turn, meaning that you have to visually check the display when driving. Pretty Dangerous. Advises you to make a u turn on dual carriageways, turn into one way streets the wrong way,send up dead ends.A lot of streets it can't find at all or sends you to a street of thesame name in a different town. No full post code search means you can't find cottages etc,in rural areas or find newly built estates.

Frankly it doesn't do what it puports to on too many occasions. If it was £50 it would be too much

Nokia E63

Review Although it's missing some features (chiefly HSDPA and GPS), Nokia's E63 is a well-thought-out, ergonomic and affordable smartphone.
