Hi, I intend buying a new unit which must have bluetooth for handsfree mobile use and the facility to be able to set the distance from the speed camera site that the alert sounds. European mapping and speaking street names is also necessary. The speed camera distance setting is important as I understand the later models do not have this facility and I consider it a necessity and was available before on my older units.
Unless I misunderstand the question, my GO LIVE 1535 does all of these things, and I assume that
some of the other models will do so also - depending upon their feature lists.
The 1535 has a Bluetooth connection to my cell phone and will receive a phone call
almost hands-free. I tap the screen once to accept or decline the incoming call, and once at the end to disconnect. If the incoming call is in the phone book of my cell phone, the caller is identified on the screen of the 1535.
I
believe that it will place outgoing calls with a single tap on the screen, followed by voice commands to select the number to be called, as the manual says that it can do this. However, I cannot swear to this as fact, as I refuse to place an outgoing call while driving, and have never used this feature.
I am able to set the alert distance for speed cameras and for red-light cameras to different values of my own choosing. I can confirm that the red-light camera alerts function as intended, but I am not aware of any speed cameras in my area, so I do not know from personal experience that the speed camera alerts work as intended. (Everything I have seen indicates that they will, but I cannot state that as a fact without personal knowledge.)
With best wishes,
- Tom -
