Good hardware, bad software

 

Acquisition from cold is usually quick, and hot starts are very fast. Tracking is reliable and battery life is good. Lat and long values are wrong in exported csv and text files, but correct in Google Earth klm files. If Imperial units are selected...

Hard Learning Curve

 

The hardware works and is very simple but is not as accurate as other sat navs I have. The software is primitive. My advice is don't read the packaging it will mislead you, find the user manual on the disc and read that. I was alarmed at first because...

Parfait. Vaut son prix !

 

Ce gadget reçu par poste (prix total Frs 117.-) est extraordinaire. Se dissimule dans le coffre d'une voiture et vous reportez plus tard son parcours sur Google Earth. Permet à un livreur de mesurer les km parcourus pendant sa tournée. Deux bémols = sa...

Great for RC planes...

 

I have one of these, took it apart, threw the casing away and now it fits perfectly in my Radio controlled plane!

I bought my DG100 in January 2008, and have taken it travelling with me. It is fast at both cold and warm start, and effectively instantaneous on hot start (eg. emerging from a tunnel). It is easy to use on commercial aircraft (held against window) and...

Useful

 

I´m using it since 2 years and it is a great device. Always catching, even inside my bag. Can be recharged directly to the PC and the external software DGManager.NET is very good. Only disadvantage: it consumes much battery (AA)

Different from what I've seen

 

Althought it seemed bigger than what I thought it would be (it isn't that big, it fits in your palm and is smaller than a TomTom One GPS), it's a great device.It works perfectly, and for the software part, it takes minutes to master. Although certain...

Value for the money

 

Am using this unit for low cost way to record hiking trails. Great sensitivity compared to previous chipset. Not very intuitive software but once onto it it does the job.

Empfangsstark, aber etwas schwer

 

Ich habe dieses Gerät seit Anfang 2007 und bin sehr zufrieden. Es hält mit den mitgelieferten Akkus tatsächlich einen ganzen Tag durch und bietet genug Arbeitsspeicher, um ohne PC-Synchronisation einen einwöchigen Urlaub komplett zu loggen. Das...
