As unhelpful as it is helpfulJul 19, 2010 This item is extremely frustrating. It will hurt you as often as help you. There is no way to determine WHY it is taking you on a particular route, and often their routes are wrong, so you can be headed on a wild goose chase just to "save" you 1 minute of travel. They need to build an interface that accounts for the possibility that there is a human driving the car that might have some information to add.
Great GPSJul 16, 2010 I bought this for my wife and we have found it to be indespensible on family trips. We never realized how much we were missing by not having one.
She likes that it shows speed limit for road you are on, the bright colorful graphics, and that it tells you street names. It works well with a portable friction mount (sold separately).
She doesn't like that it took awhile to figure out how to see the entire list of directions and how long it takes to acquire a satellite. I find the voice to be annoying and although the volume can be adjusted, its either too loud or too low. Now I know why some manufacturers allow you to change the voice. These voice prompts sometimes occur too late, as in, you have already passed a turn before it tells you about it (like a commercial I have seen on TV). This is all the more reason to plan your trip, stay alert, and pay attention.
Two final things I wish it had: It does not tell you which lane to be in and it does not include lifetime updates like its competitors.
Overall, we like it, even with its minor flaws. If you don't allow it to become a total crutch, you'll like it too.
Don't buy itJul 13, 2010 It takes forever to get reception and the actualization process is very slow, easy to get lost. Moreover, sometimes the screen direction does not match what the spoken navigator system says ... it is horrible. I had to buy another one.
Never be lost again =)Jul 02, 2010 It's a comfort to have this in my glove box, I wont ever feel completely lost again. Thanks Garmin!
Not So greatJun 28, 2010 I bought this GPS one 1.5 year back,From the begining this has two problems,The Audio will not work some times and the response time was not very good.
