Rating: - Great Product -- Wish I still had it.
Bought it for my wife as a gift. Taught her how to use it...real easy. She left it attached to her windshield. Someone busted in the passenger window on her brand new car that night and took the unit. They knew what they were doing. Make sure you register and secure yours. GPS theft is a nice little business unit of the black market. I'm sure it showed up on e-bay soon after. Just thought you should know. Insurance didn't pay a dime for the unit. Really wish we still had it.
Rating: - Garmin
Works great. Improvements: More than one stop before final destination and could shut off new route calculations when I know my route is better.
Rating: - great GPS
Product is all that I expected for the model and price range.
Simple operation was very helpful at start up.
Size makes it ideal for travelling and installing in other vehicles as well as fitting into computer case.
Rating: - Federated States of Micronesia?
I could have gotten over the bulky antennae if it weren't for the fact that in many instances, it tells me to turn toward the Federated States of Micronesia (which are in Australia). I live in the DFW area, these are major streets and highways and having to look at the screen to see what it should really be saying was very unsafe. I returned it and will stick with my unsafe but free mapquest.
