But be warned - it was adjusted to its highest point, so it wont fit a case larger than the PixelSkin. -GPS fix more accurate than iPhone's internal GPS. This resulted in less jerky movements and less jumping around during GPS application usage. Cons: -GPS signal dropped out far more often than my standalone TomTom PND. This is unacceptable in a product meant to improve GPS reception that actually uses the same GPS chip as the TomTom PND I am comparing it with. -With kit mounted on windscreen the iPhone overheated and stopped working (displayed a temperature warning message and forced itself into...

I travel by car quite a lot as part of my job and I had the chance to test this kit extensively. As the title stated, here are the major problems: 1). CHARGING When I plug my iPhone 3GS, about 3 out of 5 I'll get a message on the iPhone saying that "This accessory is not for iPhone". I have tried every possible way to ensure that I am plugging the iPhone properly, which it does because the shape of the kit prevent the iPhone to be plugged in other ways, yet I still get that dreaded message and the iPhone DOES NOT CHARGE. it seems that the connector is not designed well and it does not recognize the iPhone most of the time. UPDATE: Here's another thing I found about the charging issue: the car kit is SUPPOSED to CHARGE your iPhone while you are using the naVigation apps (TomTom, Navigon, Magellan Roadmate) at close to high brightness (due to sunlight)...

I have already downloaded the Magellan GPS app from the iTune store and I'm very excited about how wonderful this car kit functions. Not sure about some of the other reviewers but this Magellan car kit makes my iPhone so much better with much louder audio volume, I had to turn the volume down on the car kit because it was too loud. The Bluetooth paired up quickly and the GPS reception is so much better when the iPhone is connected to the Magellan car kit. This is the perfect solution since my family owns 5 iPhones, mostly 3Gs and not everyone own a GPS, with this Magellan car kit, we can share the car kit between our iPhones when someone needs to take a trip. We all use protective cases and it's great that it is not necessary to remove our phones from the protective cases when we mount the iPhone to the car kit. This is a huge plus and a great design from Magellan. I feel some reviewers may look into the... Read more |
