Happy Customers Say:
Great value for every dollar
Bought this GPS for $60. The good thing is that it can be easily unlocked into a general purpose WINCE machine. The RW400 comes with a multimedia menu out of the box, where you can read txt, watch a few kinds of videos and view pics in a ugly browser. But that’s far from what it can actually do. Search “towince” and download the exe into any folder on the SD card that comes with your machine. Change the GPS path to where it is and run. Voila! The WINCE desktop appears! You can view every on-device directory, edit the registry, and launch various applications—it’s even pre-loaded with pdf/doc/ppt softwares. Funny why they installed all those stuff if they are not willing to show them to the users.
The copilot software is OK. Smooth interface and quite accurate directions, but 3D display seems a little lagging when there’re lots of objects on the map. Not so many POIs—can not find the local bloom store and a newly opened cinema. But you can load your own POI file. Anyway, nearly everything on this device is customizable, including changing GPS software.
Power drains VERY quickly though. Need a recharge every 2 hours if used heavily.
In short, this is a great GPS for geeks who have love of such gadgets. Price is unbeatable.
Pretty Good For the price
I just bought this GPS and received it a couple days ago. It seems to work alright for the price. It finds my relative location (it is off a bit at times) but that is expected around buildings and bad weather, not to mention the battery power is low (explained below)
The first reviewer who rated it bad is confused and did not read the directions.
Although most of my review will focus on the negative points, I would like to let you know that so far, over-all, I do like this unit and would have bought it again had I the chance to do it over again. This is my first GPS so I am no pro, I just have a few complaints to share in case the company is reading, perhaps they may remedy the issues.
It has many points of interest and I was even able to get directions for a 2300 mile distance in under a minute.
It has had trouble locating me in the house or outside the house a few times and when it does locate me it says I am half a block away. I guess that won’t bother me too much.
a few things did bother me about this unit, one, is that it does not come with a house-hold wall charger, it only comes with a car cigarette lighter adapter. This unit is portable for on foot or in car travel so I do not understand why it did not come with a house hold adapter. I do not own a motor vehicle so I have no way to recharge it at this time.
It does have a setting for walking or driving distance, I set mine to walking distance.
second, the rechargeable battery is non-accessible. If it goes bad how am I supposed to replace the battery? I do see some tiny screws, but I was told by the company that tampering with those voids my warrantee. A battery bay would be great.
Third, the map dragging responds a bit slow. When I drag the map I get slight lag, or it ends up over-calculating my drag speed and sending the map way off course. This is likely something that just takes a little personal feel to get used to, it may also be that I have not been able to charge it yet due to no proper power adapter being supplied.
Fourth, it does not come with a USB adapter cord, it has the ability to connect to USB but for what reason I do not know, they did not include the cord.
These things can be purchased separately but it would have been great if they had included it just out of courtesy.
Fifth, it was unable to locate a street address which I once worked at. If I navigate to that address on the map I can find it, but there is no way that I could see to program in the address my self if it does not exist in it’s data base.
and last, while I am trying to navigate the map to locate an address – the map resets and puts my position into center focus if my signal moves. This made it difficult to find an address on the go.
But over all, this little unit works effectively for my needs so far and I would recommend it to you if it is your first or if you don’t have a lot of money to spend.
Still waiting
I bought the Rightway 400 GPS Navigator mainly because of the size of the screen and the price. I’m customizing the inetrior of my pickup truck and want to build it into the console, where it will be easy to see, yet off the dashboard where many get stolen. The instruction maual has places to get technical support and they say that most questions will be answered in one business day. I asked if it was possible to mount an external antenna on the unit so that it can be placed in a more stealthy location. After submittiing the request two more times, I still haven’t heard from them. I used the e-mail address, so my next step is to call them and see what type of response I get. I cannot rate the product since I have yet to use it. I rate the service as piss poor, even if they replied and told me that they couldn’t give me any advice, I would respect that. Not answering at all doesn’t sit well with me.
