I am very happy with the Pharos I travel every week and rent cars The GPS is great gets me where i have to go and very easy to use
1 Stars Pharos Dissappointing
The Pharos 535+ is an attractive unit with a nice case and potentially useful features. Unfortunately there are two main problems: (1)it uses Windows Mobile rather than Palm OS, (2) (and more importantly) the GPS function was unable to establish sufficient connections to work. I live in the mountains, which doesn’t keep my two Garmins from working, but perhaps the Pharos GPS only works in the flatlands. I returned my Pharos after a couple frustrating weeks of attempting to get the GPS to work. The PDA functions of Windows Mobile are also not as easy to use as those of a Palm OS unit. I recommend finding a refurbished Garmin iQue 3600 if you want a GPS/PDA combination.
