highly recommended

saved me in downtown D.C.

I purchased this product after getting a job in Washington D.C. and was tired of getting lost downtown all the time. It saved me from the meltdowns I used to have and got me to places painlessly. It was super easy to use, and now I can enjoy the scenery while driving instead of having panic attacks.

Napoleon did well!

The title is a reference to the great commercial Garmin had during the Super Bowl. (A tiny driverless car speeds around Paris to techno music...all the while depending on the Garmin for directions. When the car finally reaches its destination you see that the driver is actually a tiny Napoleon who gets on a tiny horse.) With the notorious French pride I'm surprised that a French company would make fun of France.

My review: I purchased the Garmin because I moved cross country to Seattle. I've used this device every day for about 6 months and love it. I especially love that I can type in "coffee" or "books" and it will pull up all of the businesses with that word in their name. You can even type in part of the name (if you want to go to Home Depot you are able to type "home de" and have the same result).

My one frustration is that you cannot search cross streets (i.e. 2nd Avenue at Denny). You must have a specific address on the street to get the map. I believe, though, that any of the devices with the cross street function are significantly more expensive and this was a great pricepoint.

good product

Good price for a Garmin product, a little bit too big compared with newer units. Huge directory of places of interest. It actually gives you the names of the streets, so I like that feature. Very easy to use

Wonder little device

I bought this product a few days before a long drive from Philly to Bar Harbor, Maine. I was a litte concerned that I wouldn't have a chance to learn how to use it before we left. Talk about worrying about nothing.... I plugged it in...turned it on...and with in minutes...I was a wizard. The GSP does all the work...and adjusts on the fly if you decide take a route other then the suggested route. The entire family got a kick out of changing the nationality of the GPS. By mid-trip...Jill (American voice) or Emily (British voice) became part of the family.

One of the best features was being able to see what the projected time of arrival was...that helped with the age old travel questions..."when are we gonna get there".

I bought this GPS for $155 and shipping was free. I also had a $25 gift card. This is the best $130 I have ever spent.

Easy to operate.
Information is mostly accurate, but there are restuarants that are out of busines for over two years in there and places that are over two years old that are not there.
We loose sat contact on 75% of our trips for a short period of time.
Time to location very good.
