I bought this unit for $129 on Black Friday 2009. It was a great price for this unit. The Garmin interface is very intuitive and easy to use. Even my wife, who is not very tech savvy is able to use it. The traffic receiver is nice to have, but not very useful unless you are in a large metropolitan area. It will be great when we travel through large cities. I never have a problem acquiring satellites and the Ecoroute feature is nice, but mostly unused. The 4.3" screen is great, I also recommend getting the portable friction mount made by Garmin.
Make sure you update the map after unboxing as the unit most likely will have an older map version. We live in a newer subdivision and our house wasn't found in the maps that came on the unit.
Overall I'm very satisfied and would recommend Garmin products to friends and family
What's great about it: Great price, easy to use, traffic reciever
What's not so great: No bluetooth
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've only used it a few times for extended periods, but have been impressed so far with the unit. It has yet to mispronounce a street name. Actually, the only times that I have driven off course is when I didn't trust the unit's directions and missed a turn. The traffic feature is incredibly intuitive. It maneuvered me around a major traffic tieup, even though at first the directions seemed a little bizarre. I have only scratched the surface as far as the features are concerned. I look forward to exploring those. So far, so good!
What's great about it: Very easy to get started, perfect size, ample features
What's not so great: Have only had it for a month; no complaints thus far.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've only used this a couple of times since purchase. It was accurate except for one address..it said I was at my destination a few hundred feet before I actually was. I like that it gives street names, the screen is easy to see and read. Previous GPS units I've used gave more info right on screen such as remaining time to destination, remaining miles, things like that. But the GPS is overall a good product based on the short time I've had it.
What's great about it: size, features, price (at sale time), clear, easy set up
What's not so great: not as much info as some other gps units
I would recommend this to a friend!

So far so good. I have not used it enough with all the snow and ice we have had in the metro area. Mostly, I have just gone to regular places and for shopping. As winter eases, I will use and explore more.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I had been using the Navigation on my cell phone for over a year and decided that I would purchase a GPS on Black Friday...found this one online and purchased on for myself and my mother. The navigation on my cell phone detected traffic but did not give an alternate route...whats the point in that??? I love the fact that the GPS can detect excessive traffic and will immediately redirect to an alternate route to avoid the traffic...Anyway...GREAT item...LOVE IT!
What's great about it: Easy set up, good price and love traffic alerts! Gives an alternate route immediately!
What's not so great: Haven't found anything not so great yet...
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am pleased with this upgrade from my former gps. It does all of the things that I expected when I bought it. The directions for the advanced features could be a little more clear.
What's great about it: Easy to begin using. Clear directions. Fast route recalculations.
What's not so great: Needs better directions on advanced features.
I would recommend this to a friend!
