I don't know but their car stereos are pure class

I just bought one amd I am well pleased. It's very sturdy and has a nice large screen. Much cheaper than Garmin or Tom Tom.
The only problem I had was to construct a mount for the RAM. The motorcycle mount that is on the market is of no use on the GS.

the only things that look not so good are:

IPX4 rated (splash-proof) instead of say, IPX7 rating (Garmin Zumo) IPX7 means the unit can be submerged in water for a short period without adverse effect.

The covers on the side for the micro-USB connector and headphone is one piece...so if you have a jackplug plugged in for audio, you are then leaving the USB socket exposed to water.

But yes, it looks excellent value and I do like the trick 3D terrain view.
