Very good product. I have used four different GPS systems that family members own and this is the most user friendly and direction savvy GPS I have found, I highly recommend it to all my friends.
I thought for the price of this item, that it was a good deal. Very happy with how it works.
And it gets you there. Even updating the software was a breeze.
This is our fifth Garmin unit (we have the marine versions also) and as usual it is very user friendly. All of our other units are black-so seeing a color choice made me happy.
I love this unit and am so happy they are thinking about the female population and having 'colors'. The older versions needed to have the maps/charts downloaded to the unit itself or a 'data card'.
I have an older Streetpilot and can't believe how much smaller and lighter this unit is. Also it was much easier to set up- 'right out of the box'.
Operating the unit itself is simple. Would highly recommend.
Why is Amazon shipping GPS units with outdated maps. I travel extensively and thought this would be a good purchase. When the unit was received it would display a message stating that I should update the maps. The essence of a GPS is how accurate the roads are. I am very disappointed.
No qwerty keyboard like input2. Abundance of Maps3.
I find Garmin GPS is the most user friendly GPS. I brought the unit I purchase to Vegas, Hoover Dam, Grand Canyon.
I use GPS oftenly, mostly from rental car - from the early phone type with operator assist, the Megellan unit comes with most Hertz, and Garmin GPS from Alamo/National. Touch Screen2.
And now I am back in Malaysia and I travel to Kuala Lumpur and Singapore. I also got a Australia map for my 2009/5 trip to Melbourne -> Gold Coast.What I like:1.
Easy to use - I never read the manualWhat I don't like:1. Locating the satellite can take up to 5-10 minutes half of the time.
