Feature packed. January 8, 2009 I've looked at many GPS's at this price and more, but didn't find anything this feature packed at this price. Have only used it a few times so far, but liked the night screen setting, live ETA calculation (to help you arrive on time), next turn listed at the top of the screen, accuracy (for roads and turns), and is less annoying about having to recalculate the route when you venture off on newer roads. So what if it's not qwerty (I'm not texting) or two hour battery (most of the time you use it plugged in to your car) or you have to look up additional POI's on the internet first and input them as a destination (it has the rest areas and hotels and important stuff). So far, I have no complaints. (Well, there was an insert that explained that the U.S. lags behind the E.U. with the FM traffic system. What else is new. It will eventually come. We invested in that 'Smart Highway System' in Orlando.) Reviews on other sites said there are maps of Europe, Asia, South America, etc. on the CD(that I haven't verified yet). All in all, it pretty much does all that I need it to do, and then some; especially for the price!
great buy January 7, 2009 Used only a few time but worked flawlessly. Could be a little more user friendly
Good quality little hard to navigate January 6, 2009 Great product if your going to spend $100-150. Would be worth a lot more if the person who designed the nokia phones software designed this things software. If you like to fiddle with things then you won't mind this gps unit but if you are one of those people who need to hold somebody's hand when ever something new is in front of you then get something else. I would buy another one if I could get device and added features.
Good to Excellent GPS January 6, 2009 The title says it all... If you are looking for a good GPS this is your product. If you are looking for features that is not included in the specs well look for a different one. This product from nokia is decent for everyday use, and the price is right of course.
This thing is awsome January 1, 2009 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this for my wife for Christmas and I was a little worried based on the reviews but figured I would give it a shot. We used this last night for the first time and WOW. First I want to deal with the negatives that people talk about. Cons: 1. The keyboard: It is an alphabetical keyboard but it autosearches for you as you go so you don't even have to type a whole address. 2. Fm Transmitter: Ok so it does turn off after one minute but really unless you are listening to music on it while your driving you don't need it and then it would stay on because you are using it. 3. Bluetooth: The bluetooth works great with the built in speaker and mic.
Pros: I don't know where to begin because this GPS is great. Honestly if I could find another one for the price I paid for this one I would buy it in a second. 1. Directions are dead on. It even names the ally way between my house and the ones behind me. I didn't even know they had names. 2. Has an auto search function that looks up where you are going before you finish typing. 3. Display is bright and easy to use. I have large fingers and the touch screen worked fantastic. 4. POI's fairly up to date but they all have some measure of old to them. Found everything I was looking for. 5. Bluetooth easy to hear and be heard on, so I've been told. 6. Ease of use. I didn't even read the manual and figured it out. Some people said it is hard to use but they probably can't even use the tv remote. All settings are easy to follow, menus are self explainitory.
I don't know what else to say unless you are a electronics lemon you will be able to use this and love it. But it now.
