Sounds like it's worth the £20!! :rotfl:
Are you trying to use it indoors? They can't normally pick up the satellites in a building.
All the Sat Navs I've seen activate the GPS as soon as you swithc them on. Not muc point in them if they don't.It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide
And it's my problem if I have no friends
And feel I want to die0 -
It might take a few minutes the first time you switch it on for it to pick up a satellite signal....0

They don't work very well (if at all) if placed in a vehicle that has a metalised windscreen. This is true of most stand alone sat navs. In this case you would need to use an external antenna.Try saying "I have under-a-pound in my wallet" and listen to people react!0

Got it working as Geetin Old stated it takes a few mins to pick up the signal for the first time!!
Very good buy for £20 has everything a sat nav needs and the touch 4.3" screen is great, very happy indeed!!!0
