ICN 520 Mini review

[DreX]

The 520 seems very similar to the 510
Case is Satin Black, Exactly same Size shape
and all connectors etc in exactly same position.
Gps Antenna looks identical too.

The Unit comes with a 512Mb MMC Card
most of which is empty, however the card holds voice commands
in several languages, thisd seems the onle real reason for
the larger memory card.

However the 520 Software seems much slower than the 510
When typing in post codes and street names, the unit Pauses
for several seconds (Almost appearing to have crashed)
This may be down to Larger Memory card
or the software.
But the pause is Definetly a lot longer than my 510 with
a 256mmc Card

Postcode search is Same as 510 4 or 5 digit...
E.g NG1,5 Nottingham
or AB10 1 Aberdeen
Leaving last 2 digits out of postcode

There is Clear Facility on menu for
Multi-Stop Trips

Go to Replaces the "Destination" on 510
you are then Faced with options for
"Find area"
"Find Street"
"Find Postal code"
"Find point of interest"
"Change Country"

One Clear Advantage is there is a space bar present
on both the Alpha Keypad and Numeric Keypad input screens
On the 510 you had to switch back to the Alpha screen to find the space
when inputting numbers

Volume level is Exactly the same as 510
As is the actual Voice itself

Screen is Same Size and colours as are the maps appearance

Interestingly, there is a "Save" box at the bottom of each menu screen
which saves you returning all the way back to be asked
"do you want to save settings"

Apart from this, the units appear
identical
