 Not up to my expectation November 11, 2008

Navman S30 3D Satellite Navigation Unit With UK & Ireland Mapping
The only way I could think of to measure the accuracy of the Navman S30 unit was to set it up with a trip I was familiar with, but rather than going out in the car I put it into demo mode.
I setup home, and then setup a favorite destination - both very simple.
It found the postcode, but not the house of my destination - so I put in 16 rather than 15 - no big deal.
The unit was in default (i.e quickest, motorways, etc), and it had no problem getting to the destination town. Unfortunately, it then took the "tourist route", but eventually arrived at the destination. If I had not know the route I probably wouldn't have noticed.
I then re-ran avoiding motorways, and it came off the dual carriageway at the correct roundabout, but unfortunately missed a sharp right just after the roundabout, and instructed me to drive in the completely wrong direction for 3 miles.
The reason for getting sat nav was because we are visiting some unfamiliar areas in the near future, but after this demo, I am not confident that the Navman S30 will get me where I want to go.
 Specification currently incorrect November 10, 2008
Mike (UK)
This is an excellent and easy to use Sat Nav but Navman do not currently sell a Traffic Cradle for this model so the Traffic data integration stated in the specification is not available and they do not give a projected date for availability of this option either although they do state that it will cost around 49.99 when it does become available. If you want/need Traffic data then you should consider another model.

I purchased and returned this item last week as you can not attach an external antenna as picture states and as stated on the box. I called Navman direct in the Phillipines who confirmed that this is a mistake obviously on their behalf. The Image shown on Amazon's website is that of the older model S30 and not the S30 3D. The difference between the 2 visually is that the 3D version does not have the external ports on the side as shown in the picture above. It only has a port for an SD mapping card and a port for a usb/charger. Please do not make the mistake I made and purchase this on what you are seeing in the picture. I have informed Amazon about this on my returns notice, but they have obviously chosen to show the same picture. I have since purchased the S30 from a very popular auction site which is as shown in this picture for 65.00 whereby I can now use it in my car as my car has a heat reflective front windscreen. JUST TO CLARIFY, THE MODEL SHOWN IN THE PICTURE IS NOT THAT OF THE S30 3D BUT OF THE OLDER S30 VERSION. WITH THE 3D VERSION YOU CANNOT ATTACH AN EXTERNAL ANTENNA FOR CARS WITH HEAT REFLECTIVE WINDSCREENS AS LEAD TO BELIEVE FROM THIS PIC AND AS STATED ON THE SIDE OF THE BOX. THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY NAVMAN DIRECT.
Disappointed October 19, 2008

I bought a Navman S30 3D, and thought great lets get it registered and update the maps etc. Frustration was all i got. The activation key had to be 16 digits, all that came with was 15 digits. Never mind, lets go on our journey anyway. I put in the postcode, and guess what, the sat nav said it was an invalid post code!!! Why, because it was a new area that the sat nav did not have installed on its map system. Very very disappointed. Will return it and try and get my money back. The Navman website also very unhelpful. Will try to get help from the technical people tomorrow on the phone as they only work from 9am to 5pm monday to friday even though they say technical help online 24 hrs a day 7 days a week.
Misleading September 13, 2008

Never ever buy a Navman if you only want Britain & Ireland as updates for these areas are only available if you buy the whole of Europe so it costs the same as a new satnav to update. VERY SNEAKY !!!!!
