    CNET Review

    June 6, 2006

    The Good: The sleek and ultraportable Sony NV-U70 features a simple interface and an accurate receiver.

    The Bad: The Sony NV-U70 was a little slow to calculate routes, and it lacks some of the features found in similarly priced competitors, such as text-to-speech functionality and traffic services.

    The Bottom Line: The Sony NV-U70 is a solid in-car nav system for the GPS newbie, offering ease of use and accurate directions, but you can get more for your money from competing products.
