EXPIRED - HP iPAQ 314 European Navigator with Bluetooth - £73.53 after cash-back and discount!


£73.53

192°

FOUND BY: HotBot 1 year, 4 months ago

STARTS: 19/07/2008   EXPIRES: 19/07/2008

Great bargain for a satellite navigation system with European mapping and Bluetooth handsfree.
It even comes with a years speed camera subscription fro free!

To get it at this price sign up at www.modaco.com and then request your £10 off code for Expansys.

This means you will be charged £103.53 including postage. Then claim your £30 cash-back from HP by downloading this form http://h40059.www4.hp.com/morepc/pdf/july-claim-form.pdf

There is a big software update available for this unit to improve its functions and stability that was released only last week http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=uk&prodTypeId=215348&prodSeriesId=3544278&prodNameId=3544282&swEnvOID=2051&swLang=118&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=hh-61307-2

Maybe not a TomTom but a great buy at the price?

Sounds like a great price for a lot of sat nav - review here

http://www.yournav.com/content/review/437/iPAQ_314_work_cut_out_for_HP.html

Haven't checked but hopefully the software update will resolve some of the issues the reviewers found.

Thanks o/p

Looks good as I'm looking for one with European maps. Will check first though to see if the s/w update has fixed the probs in that review...

The interface on this looks sweet, in fact the whole unit looks sweet and it's a great price.

Problem is, after using a Garmin temporarily (just one journey-it was enough) it was almost embarrasing to see how far behind TomTom they were. So I'd be a bit sceptical about buying any non TomTom unit in the future.

That article says:

:
We were very enthusiastic when the HP iPAQ 314 was first announced. Now we’re mainly left with a feeling of disappointment. Because based on what HP is currently shipping, they are nowhere near being a threat to the market leaders TomTom, Garmin and Mio.
Worse than Garmin? I shudder at the thought.

Funny that, last time I used a TomTom it was terrible. The maps were new, but they were just so wrong. The unit also fell to pieces once you went under a bridge.

Saying that, I did just buy a TomTom GO 720, and I must say their online service is cool. Dunno what the navigation's like though.

Well guys, I bought one a couple of weeks ago when they were on offer at ebuyer for £125 and I can say that even though I have only done a couple of trips with it I found it ok. Sure its not a tomtom, but to be honest, at this price with all the extra features it's a better bit of kit.

I have also been told that because it is windows CE operating system it can be easily hacked to use the tomtom software along with a load of other available windows CE applications.

In my opinion (sure loads of you will disagree) its a very good price, you can't go wrong.

I'm sure I saw one on the ebuyer website for about £30.

Bit of an odd question, but how does the picture viewer work? If I dumped a load of pictures in different folders on a SD card, can I browse the folders or does it just bring up all the photos on a card?

Hope all who wanted it at this great price placed their orders! I ordered mine!

It is now gone up by £26 so if you want one you need to go to Dabs.
