Help needed on this Fujitsu N520 on ebay

I am thinking of buying a Fujitsu N520 with the Navigon 5 navigation system, I have seen this one on Ebay, seems quite a bargain as it has all the extra's, what do you think?

Do a search on this forum for N520, as I'm sure recently a few users had issues getting TT5 to work properly.

Both of these models are a higher spec and come with tomtom Nav 6.

They both have a internal sirf 3 GPS and both come with car cradle and charger. The 5270 has UK maps 1Gig memory and bluetooth. The 5935 has European maps, 2Gig memory, bluetooth and wifi.

Tomtom is a much better program than navigon.

If it looks too good to be true, it probably is too good to be true. Be wary when purchasing a Sat Nav this way or you could end up with a device which doesn't work or with very out of date maps. You'd be better off buying a new or refurbished device from this site.

Hi Martin and Border collie, I did not want to just have sat nav, I want to be able to get email, search the internet via wireless hotspots or wireless at home, also I use MSN messenger a lot and I know all these things are easily done on the N520 that's for sale on ebay.

I have noticed that he has dropped his "buy it now price" to £265 !!!

I emailed the guy and he seems very genuine, he forgot to put in the add that it comes with a 1 gig SD card as well as the one that came with the unit new, I am tempted but its still stretching my spending limit :-( I may have to buy my wife some flowers :-)

It also has full Fujitsu warranty until July 2008

You could do this on any of those listed by Martin -indeed any 2003/WM5 device (providing it has wi-fi).

Yes they both do most of this as only the 5935 out of the two I posted has wifi.
