I recently purchased the 500
I recently purchased the 500 model.
Whilst generally happy with it on two occasions it has directed me to make a turn then after a few minutes sent be back to the turning point and sent me in a different direction. Both times I was using the Surprise me function.
When reviewing my rides in History I was amazed to discover that on several rides I averaged slightly under 50k an hour and on another averaged 512k an hour - I wish. My correct average was around 20k an hour. It should be noted that when I uploaded the rides to the Magellancyclo site the correct information was recorded.
I also find the rubber USB port cover to be very fiddly. Sometimes it closes correctly on the first attempt yet on others takes numerous attempts.
The price was a large factor in my decision to purchase.
