Good low cost satnav, shame about the US docs and website Sent: 01 January 2009
This largely does what I wanted it to do - it gets my daughter home from anywhere without her having to do very much. Seems to work well - I have no need for any sophisticated features like some reviewers. However, I think the supplied manual is poor and does not showcase the features very well. Also the Garmin website is not at all friendly and should be tailored to the model you have - instead it gives masses of irrelevant information and downloads that you don't need. However, four stars for working straight away out of the box.
nice gift  Sent: 26 December 2008
i bought this for my hubby as a xmas gift, cause he only likes complicated things. i thought it might arrive a bit late. but actually the delievery is very fast. it is a big surprise for him. he is very happy with his toy. as i supposed, it keeps him very busy!

Great little gadget. Ordered Friday didnt expect until after christmas (chose standard delivery) but arrived Monday! Took a few minutes to set up. I gave it a test drive to work, it tried to go several routes but I stuck to my usual and each time relocated and did so quickly! Definately value for money.
Best buy Sent: 19 December 2008
After reading the reviews for this product before deciding to purchase it, I must now put some of the issues raised to bed. my unit has come pre loaded with the 2009 map set, so no need to log on to Garmin and download new maps. upon initial start up it does take a while to aquire reception. however the unit still thinks its where it was last turned on so searches the sky for the satellites that it thinks sould be there according to its last known location. this is also the same if you turn it off and then drive a hundred miles and the turn it on. it still thinks is where it was turned off, after a minute it aquires its new location so this is no real problem.
when compared to the Tom Tom the display is easier to read with regards to the next juction and current road. it doesn't over complicate it meaning you are easily and quickly able to see the relivant information and therefore pay full attention to the road.
for the money this item eclipses everything else on the market. you have the backing of the biggest commercial GPS manufacture and it does exactly what it says on the box. having used a very expensive Tom Tom recently the Garmin has out classed it in all areas.
very recomended.
