Awesome GPS system
Review of Garmin nüvi 5000 - GPS receiver 5000 GPS receiver by Chariumelle

Advantages: Good quality, clear speakers, easy to install
Disadvantages: NONE

This GPS system is high-quality and has a good picture. It will show you the road that you're on and makes it easy to find your way around. If you miss a road or make a wrong turn it will calculate a new route for you to take to your destination. It tells you out loud which roads to take so you don't have to look at the screen and get distracted. This system makes it easy to focus on driving, not getting lost, and makes your life a lot easier. Whenever ... Read review

Garmin StreetPilot 7500 is excellent!
Review of Garmin StreetPilot 7500 - GPS receiver 7500 12 channel GPS receiver by muskafella

Advantages: Large screen size, Easy to use, Plays mp3s
Disadvantages: Graphics, Size and safe mounting

...the most expensive unit, but Garmin seemed best, and the 7200 and 7500 have the largest screens. The screen is large and very easy to read. Some Pros: - All the maps (US) are included. No need to pay for extra unlocks and deal w/ getting them going. - Works right out of the box. - Works well with XM - Easily plugged into my computer, for loading of mp3s and books. - Interface is probably not the easiest, but that's because there are so many ways ...
...don't want to muck w/ anything, it's ready to go, and you could just go w/ the default interface. Some Cons: - Calling customer service is brutal. Once I reached them, they were absolutely knowledgeable and easy to understand. But reaching them meant several failed attempts over several days. I would defidently recommend to a friend ...

Tom Tom 3rd review
Review of TomTom ONE 3rd Edition - GPS receiver 3rd Edition GPS receiver by magnum17x

Advantages: Easy to use
Disadvantages: kinda long inputing process

Advantages: Pretty Accurate Disadvantages: some steps take more time to input Recommend to potential buyers: yes Full review I just entered the job market and have attended many job interviews which require driving to unfamilar places. Before I got the Tom Tom I had to look up the address and print out maps on Mapquest everytime. But now with the Tom Tom I save time and paper. Right now I work for a temp agency which sends me to different ...
...The Tom Tom provides clear directions by voice and audio at a glance. Accurate positioning with easy access to traffic information It also calculates smarter routes which I use to remove freeway driving. I am not that great at freeway driving and I find useful that I can remove streets and highways and the news paths are mapped for me. Other stuff: 1 GB internal memory 2 hours of operation unplugged plugged in throught ciggerrate lighters ... Read review

Good basic GPS
Review of Garmin StreetPilot c330 - GPS receiver C330 12 channel GPS receiver by lclabr

Advantages: gets you where you need to be. you will never be lost
Disadvantages: pre-loaded data can be very out of date, uploading new data is expensive

...I was told that Garmin is the best GPS brand by the sales rep. I was deciding between models mostly based on their sleek design versus price. I went with the c330 because it was a lot cheaper and since it was only a toy for me, I decided I didn't need the extra functionality the more expensive models offered. Once I started using my GPS though, I really can't imagine how I ever lived without one. It has come in handy in countless ways that I never ...
...that everyone needs a GPS. This model is great if you just want the basics and an inexpensive GPS. My only complaint is that some of the pre-loaded maps/data are very out of date (for example, on a road trip we were trying to find a particular fast food restaurant so we selected the nearest one on the GPS and once we got to the location all we found was a bank). Therefore I really don't recommend relying on that particular feature of finding the ... Read review

Great GPS
Review of TomTom ONE 3rd Edition - GPS receiver 3rd Edition GPS receiver by lindybrasher

Advantages: Small, Easy to use
Disadvantages: none

I have a friend that loves this GPS. He will not go anywhere without it. He continues to try to get me to buy one and even said he would buy another just so I could have his. He is impressed with its ability to get you anywhere and he says that he has not had one problem with it. If you take a wrong turn due to your mistake then it will get you right back on track. I have seen this product mounted in his car and it is not too big or too small. You ... Read review
