Amazon.com Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description With the Navman F20 you get a lot for very little. Loaded with features normally found in other, more expensive car navigators, the F20 packs them all into a neat, pocket-sized compact unit. With simple touch-screen menus and a pre-installed regional map, you'll enjoy voice and visual turn-by-turn directions straight out of the box. 
The Navman F20 is a feature-rich GPS unit that does more than just get you where you're going. Take a closer look at this unit. | 
The F20 summary screen lets you know where you've been and where you're going. | The first thing you'll notice about the F20 is its impressive anti-glare, high-resolution color touch widescreen. However, thanks to its intelligent design, the F20 is still compact and easy to carry. Sleek and robust, the F20 houses a vast array of impressive features that include thorough directional graphics, a Turn-by-Turn voice guided navigation with 3D graphics mode, and a Multi-route option mode, and more. Other design features include a software kit containing Pause Journey--a feature unique to the Navman F20, and with the included Drive-Away platform, you'll be able to use the F20 in multiple vehicles. In case of an emergency you'll never have to worry about being stranded; just one touch displays your exact location so you can quickly advise roadside assistance or emergency services. And there's even a built-in automatic re-routing protocol with the included Back-on-Track feature, a technology that gives line-by-line directions to find your way even if you deviate from the previous directions. When you're ready to park, or when you need to fill up the tank, the F20 sports two convenient "Nearest Parking" and "Nearest Gas Station" buttons that are built right into the front of the unit. The F20 also comes with a high-impact plastic case that protects against marks and scratches while the built-in battery delivers continuous use for up to 3.5 hours. Easy to transfer between several different vehicles, with simple user interface, this system is ideal for business and personal travel. What's in the Box
The Navman F20 Navigator comes with a vehicle mounting bracket and a vehicle power adapter.

 An Okay GPS July 24, 2010
Amy Mahanna (Florida)
I've had this GPS for 3 years now, and it does an okay job. MOST of the time it will get me where I need to go, but there are some exceptions. My husband and I relied on it while visiting Texas last year, and many times it got lost (displaying only a question mark while driving) or wouldn't let us enter an address we had been given (as you type, it tries to auto-fill like T9 on cell phones, but sometimes it just turns red indicating that address isn't recognized). While visiting a friend in South Florida, it kept saying "No drivable route to destination" when I entered the address. The navigation voice can also be annoying because it will say, "In 1/4 of a mile, turn right", and as you are making the turn it says, "Turn right, then turn right" and once you're done turning, then it will tell you what to do next. Also, it makes an obnoxious chime anytime you drive over 70 mph, I guess to let you know you are speeding (in case you miss the blinking, red caption at the bottom of the screen). The ETA has never been even close to accurate for me, as well. Bottom line, it's not the greatest GPS, and if I were buying one for myself, I would invest in another brand. However, because it was given to me, I use it the best I can and always have a printout from Mapquest as a backup.
 it was a great buy December 16, 2008

I found what i was looking for and bought it. The transaction was very smooth and it ship very quick. I would use amazon again.
Great unit for the price (black friday price) November 19, 2007
Maleko (ala moana, hi)
I bought this entry level unit last black friday. It has served me well over this last year. I leave it in the car and it's been working fine, fast satellite acquisition - sirf star 3. Sure it doesn't have all the addresses, but it can find the general area where i'm looking for and that's all I need. I mainly use it to find my golf courses and it does have them. As for the connectivity kit. Don't you all have a digital camera or other digital device? Use that cable, i used it and downloaded the updates from navman, it connected and i upgraded the basic software. Now i'm not sure what else you can do with a real connectivity kit, but i'm happy with it for the price i paid. For the price the F20 works great, no problem in the Los Angeles/California area. I think this year they came out with S series, s20/s30 etc... As this company is in the UK, don't expect the same service as a company in the good ole USofA.
 Won't honor warranty September 18, 2007

My Navman F20 broke 40 days after I bought it. The charger connection broke internally. I sent it to Navman for repair in accordance with their warranty, and Navman wants $149 to repair it, claiming, without explanation, that the repair is not covered by its warranty! How something so clearly a manufacturing defect not be covered by the warranty? I have never had such poor performance from such an expensive item. My advice, don't buy anything from Navman. They are dishonest.
Great device for ENTRY LEVEL August 10, 2007
L. Porter (Scotland)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I think some of the other reviewers here are getting a bit carried away. They seem to be forgetting it is an ENTRY LEVEL device, that's why you got it cheap. It is not meant to have all the frills of a more expensive model. Who cares about custom POI's, I just want it to get me from A to B and back again. I don't need to take pictures, listen to music from it (I have a car stereo for that), I don't need to customize the POI's or the colours or backgrounds. If you are in such dire need for all of that then you should have researched what you were buying or at least looked at the info on the box. If it doesn't say its in the box then it probably isn't so why are you all harping on about software and connectivity kits? A standard USB mini cable is all that is required (these cables come with most mp3 players and digital camera's) to connect it to your PC and can also be used for charging. If you were to buy a connectivity kit from Navman then you would be an idiot as you would be paying through the nose for a cable that you most probably have already or can get for a dollar at any accessory store.
As for the software, why do you need that? You would only need it to update the maps and to update the maps you need to buy them from Navman (updates are not free) who supplies them on a SD card or CD's depending on the maps you require. The software you need to install them is supplied with them.
The Navman F20 does everything it needs to do to get you where you want to go and it does it flawlessly. It was never advertised as anything other than a straightforward navigation device, isn't that what they were designed to be?
The people complaining about the lack of features are probably the same people who want every single concievable feature on their cell phones but only ever use them to make a call. Why do you want mp3 on a satnav, are you going to carry it around in your shirt pocket all day? Ever heard of mp3 players?
OOh I want a digital camera on my satnav so that when I get to a destination I can take a picture of a landmark there so that the next time I want to go I can just touch the thumbnail and it will take me there again. WHY WHY WHY....you already know how to get there right? You are going to look stupid pulling out your satnav/mp3/digital camera/fm radio to take a pic of the castle at Magic Kingdom aren't you?
Get a life, don't buy something then complain about features you knew it didn't have. Read the box next time!
