$129.99
Overview
With free lifetime traffic, Zagat Ratings, 3-D images of highway interchanges, Lane Assist, and text-to-speech, the Navigon 5100 is rich in features that directly empower navigation. Plus, it looks great on your dashboard. It’s slim — less than an inch thick — and sports an easy-to-read 3.5″ touch screen wrapped in an elegant chrome frame.
The 5100 is the smaller sibling to Navigon’s flagship 7100. The 5100 has a 3.5-inch screen, while the 7100 has a 4.3-inch widescreen. The 7100 also adds bluetooth-capability for hands-free mobile phone integration, so if you want that feature, do check out the 7100. Otherwise, the 5100 packs in a lot of useful features into its sleek frame.

Navigon 5100 GPS review
Great buy for the money. I bought one for my parents and one for my daughter and son-in-law. I plugged it in before I gave them as gifts and was pleased with the possible exception that it doesn't sound like the voice has a very high volume. Hopefully, that won't be an issue when it is used. .... Read more

Not as good as I hoped
It is not as helpful as i hoped it would be.
For starters, the POI's are extremely limited. It did not even find a certain starbucks!
Additionally, I expected it to be able to find places,(based on its name and not an address, i.e. "Carvel") in a given area, but it is not able to do so.
The input buttons are small and slow.
As for the traffice updates, the one time it picked up a supposed traffic alert on a highway it ended up being incorrect information.

Good product for it's price
This is a great product from Navigon with lot of pros and few cons ;-)
Pros -
1) Realtime view - This is an awesome feature that is only provided by Navigon which shows number of lanes (exactly same as fwy boards), I just love it.
2) Speed limit - Gives a Caution indication to driver if speed is exceeded by 5/10/15/20 miles. (we can set the warning)
3) Turn by turn list - Gives turn by turn with street name with 1/2 mile remaining towards the turn.
4) 2D/3D .... Read more

Garmin is better~!
Seriously, if you have any brains you'll spend a few extra dollars and buy a Garmin. You can get a 265t with free traffic for about an extra $50, and that is money well spent!! The Navigon is plagued with a terrible speaker, made worse by the garbled voice that is installed in the unit. Plus I had the newest maps from Navigon, and it still didn't have my road on there, despite the road being 2 years old, Garmin had it right out of the box! Garmin has a great speaker, with clear voices, and y .... Read more
