    To get an idea of the screen size hold up an iphone 4 or 5 where you'd place it on your bike. 4.3 inches seems mighty small. I guess if you're prepared to part with 90.00 to try it out...

    Look for the same GPS on Amazon and read the reviews. I think as with most China crap you will be wasting your money.

    And they probably are infected with Spyware and reporting back to the Chicoms with gleaned data

    The other issue is trip planning. You can only choose one from column A and one from Column B. No substitutions!

    Exactly, just keep an eye out for the Garmin 595, they used to be price fixed, now some retailers are selling them much cheaper.
    I waited quite a while before I found one for $475.00, well worth the price.
