Cons A little slow in processing, battery life.
Recommended it? Yes

But then one day I realized how much money I’d been wasting on these unnecessary gadgetary-type purchases. I... Read full review »

More out of your GPS, Less out of your wallet

Pros Size, Battery life, Features, Accuracy, Screen brightness, User Friendly, Wow factor
Cons Aged mapping, POI database inconsistency, Not hard-wire friendly
Recommended it? Yes

Procrastination had pushed off the idea of a GPS unit for years, mostly because of the skyrocketing prices when they first showed up. However, in the late 2006, I was rather surprised to find that many high quality units could be had for fractions of what they emerged at. That so, I set out to find... Read full review »

This popular GPS can do more than I expected

Pros Very intuitive interface, simple yet many useful features, points of interest, clear...
Cons Slightly too wide, power plug in back. Microsoft Streets and Trips feature problematic.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought the Nüvi 255W GPS a little bit more than a month ago. I am pretty good with directions and maps and I like to know the entire route before I go and therefore I have never had a big interest in GPS devices. I typically use google/yahoo/bing maps or Microsoft Streets and Trips to look... Read full review »
