What's great about it: Shows speed limits
What's not so great: Froze and cannot be fixed
I purchased this GPS on 9/21/12. It was exactly what I wanted and performed better than I expected. It is quick and accurate. However, on the morning of 9/21/13 (yes, a year to the day-quite a coincidence!) the GPS froze and cannot be repaired. I now have the expense of purchasing a new one GPS after only one year. I am quite disappointed will not purchase a Garmin product again.

"Locked" screen on a NUVI 50LM?
One day it worked, as usual, the next day the only thing that came up was the initial screen - "GARMIN". Cannot get beyond this screen.
You can try taking out the battery and putting it in again per the manual. My GPS did the same. This method didn't help me but may work for you.
