though it says 3d maps on the description. muti language is good too. my mom can easily understand
if the lane assistance and be like the graphic shows then it's good...

 

You can teach a "senior" new tricks,
by Kay Arnold, 2010-03-12

Lived in California all my life--"many years" And felt I knew how to get to anywhere I wanted to go...However, Went to Stanford to a lecture from Marin--Did Mapquest for route--worked fine except ,when leaving for home it was DARK-could not see street signs..and the route i came in on was full of no left turns..If it had not been for the directional letters on my rear view mirror I would have ended up in San Jose..I had to stop at Starbucks to get direction to get back to freeway...
Love my GPS...used it to re-route when I tried to take short-cut in Sacramento to get around roadwork...
Thank you GPS

 

Good bargain with the features,
by Steven Miller, 2010-03-12

This Garmin has all you need in a GPS. It comes with features that usually accompany higher end models. It's ease of use is a joy. Definitely a good buy.

 

Slow response time & wacky touch screens,
by Bleu, 2010-03-10

I chose this product because I was told by my sister about the greatness of its features. Additionally, her review was backed up by most of Amazon's reviewers. Upon receiving the product, I was disappointed to find there was no or little direction on how to use it. Not that I'm computer illiterate but this was my first Garmin. So, a little direction would've been greatly appreciated.

Furthermore, the touch screen was wacky. There were 2 icons available on one of the screens and I was clicking on the icon "Where to" and received the "View Map" screen instead (which is the other icon). I tried to click "Back" and received the "Settings" instead (which is another different icon). I kept hitting "Back" and "Back", and, suddenly, the screen took me to things like trip calculator and statistics, etc. I had problems inputting street #'s and names accurately because I had to keep hitting erase (which often leads me to a different character). Sometimes I would click a letter and some other letter that is not in close proximity of that letter would pop-up. During the first few incidents I thought I was imagining things until the incident with the icons.

Next problem is the slow direction. I tested the product going to and from home. I am familiar with the traffic routes and not once it gave me warning that there will be traffic ahead; it didn't give me alternate routes to avoid traffic; and the direction was sllllooooowwww! It will tell me where to exit either while I had just past it or about to pass it. Okay... that's lame, I thought.

All in all - I had to return the item after 2x of use. I was mostly frustrated with the touch screen. Coupled with the slow direction, I wouldn't recommend this item for my senior citizen parents! After experiencing such difficulties, I found 765 nuvi @ Costco and almost all of the reviewers were having the same problems. I feel so validated! Especially after reading all of the great reviews by Amazoners... I thought I was the only one having these problems. (sanity restored!) :)

 

I love the product. It was a great purchase.,
by Swee Hock Lim, 2010-03-09

This is my first GPS navigator. It's very user friendly and works flawlessly. The best part is the price at Amazon.com, can't beat it. It was a great buy and am enjoying the product.
