Electronics : Garmin nüvi 750 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator |
- Great GPSI'm really liking my new Garmin NUVI. In reality I'm a very good navigator myself. But sometimes I missed a helping hand. NUVI has filled that space. It's voice activated guidance is quite good. One thing I feel is missing is that it does not give good points of interest options. The other day, I was looking for Walgreens, but I didn't see any options for Pharmacy. I had to spell that name....that was inconvenient. Other than that it works fine. I'll recommend you to buy it.

- Great ProductI got this for my wife. The 750 is very user friendly. It works as advertised. I have recommended this to friends.

- Best thing since the Post-It stickerThis has become my savior, since I moved to a new area recently. I never used to believe in these gadgets, but this is one item that every directionally-challenged individual should get.
It's important to get one like the 750, which specifies the street names, it stops you from having to look at the screen, and taking your eyes off the road.
On the whole, it's fairly accurate. The challenge is usually when it starts up, it's doesn't really clearly indicate where you are, so you take pot luck on the direction, until you hear the slightly annoyed female voice announce 'Recalculating'...! It does do a great job getting you back on track.
The maps are not that clear, and for some reason do not point in the same direction that you're driving. However THE VOICE is assuredly confident with the directions, that it is practically void.
Unless it's just me not knowing how to use the POI or address correctly, sometimes it's difficult to pick up locations for specific shops, and the database is not up to date with all places. (understandably shops spring up (and close) all the time.
In summary, I'm very pleased with the Nuvi 750, though I wish it came with a cover included already.

- Gps too expensiveI'm sure the GPS is fabulous and will be a Xmas hit.. but with CDN exchange rate and then UPS Broker fees of $66 at my door......I really wish I would of just went to the local department store as it was been $30 cheaper.

- The only thing missing is the blue toothGood price, easy to use and configure
No need for big configurations before use, just turn it on type in the address and go (if using the SD Card with maps for other countries, it may need to access the menu to disable the internal USA infos and enable the foreign country infos from the SD Card).
Design is better now using internal antenna (no more retractable tab behind used as antenna on older models of Nuvi)
Easily update the software through the Internet when connected to your home-pc during the registration process.
Comes with a good solution to mount out of the windshield which is a pad adesive in one side and flat on the other so you can glue it anywhere and use the flat side to fix the GPS Support just like done in the windshield.
The new Support kit makes very easy to take the GPS with you with no need to detach cables that stay fixed to the support when you detach only the GPS.
