Alpine NVE P1 - navigation system module

3/10 Alpine NVE-P1 GPS lacks quality

GPS_nut - 12/19/08

In purchasing the NVE-P1, I was hoping from Alpine advertising that I would be receiving something similar to the Garmin product that has internet map/POI download capability, but instead found that the map is very old (guess about 8 years old from the missing streets), and the POI database is worthless (showing the nearest Target store 258 miles away when I knew I was only a few miles away from the one I was trying to find). Plus, although advertised, the map update via PC computer is not available at this time. I am very disappointed and will be attempting to return the product for a full refund.
