Nearly perfect [Posted on 2008-12-12]
Excellent product - gets me everywhere I've wanted to go so far. It's already gotten me out of some places that I have gotten lost in the past. Size is perfect for what I wanted, and it boots up in a reasonable amount of time. Usually. I do wish Garmin would make it easier to find suggestions though. On my iPhone, I can just type "pizza" and get a list of pizza place; it takes too many steps on the Garmin.
Also, why not a QWERTY keyboard?? This is the only thing keeping the unit from getting five stars. It takes way too much reorienting to get accustomed to the alphabetised keyboard.
Exactly as expected [Posted on 2008-12-17]
After doing some research, we picked this particular model because 1) it is discontinued and so we got an awesome price and 2) I wanted the text to speech for street names and 3) we will be travelling in Europe next spring and it came bundled with both North America and Europe maps. (Even though the model is now discontinued, it came loaded with current maps - dated 2008 and 2009.)
We love it. So far its major test was landing in a large, unfamiliar airport late at night and having to find our way 30 miles to our destination in the dark in a rental car. It was perfect.
I really appreciate the "text to speech" feature - the exact street name is far easier to follow than just "turn right" when you're in a crowded area.
I also like the size - the screen is easy to see, yet it's very compact - and the fact that it's really easy to pop into a pocket or purse. We're looking forward to using it off-road walking around European cities. The limitation there will be the battery time, but it did come with European adapters for the AC charger, so we can charge it up each night.
This model came with other features I have not tried and will probably never use (MP3 and bluetooth e.g.) but the basic navigational functioning is great.
Good for travelers to Euopean countries [Posted on 2008-12-24]
Purchased this product because we will be traveling to Italy next year. It seems to work well in the US and has good reviews for use overseas. Hope that it makes my trips less nauseating because I won't have to look at a paper map for directions or to find out where I am on the map.
Slow and not user-friendly [Posted on 2008-12-28]
I chose garmin over tom tom due to good reviews before i bought this product. Though, I'm disappointed. I have it set to "fastest route" and it gave me local streets than highway (which is faster, because I've tested). It's just not a very "smart" gps if you have high expectations, then you'll be real disappointed with this purchase. I'm thinking about returning it to amazon.
