But can you load your own POI files on this or any other Medion satnav?
the GoPal E4230 does everything you need in a reasonably priced satnav,the only thing i can fault it with is when towing my caravan it insists on sending you the shortest route which invariably sends you down country lanes which are often too narrow.I wish you could get an upgrade download for this system to enable you to specify vehicle width.But in my opnion it is the best around for the price.
