Love It!
This item works great and does everything they said it would do. I love the fact that I don't have to wear my bluetooth when driving when using my Garmin!

Most Bang For The Buck
Can't ask for better. Does what it's supposed to and is easy to use. I've read other reviews that claim it is not as easy as a TomTom, so why not buy another TomTom.

Good Unit
Works very well, although there are times when I don't think it sends me on the fastest route. Like when it sends me through town instead of the freeway. Never faster through town. Otherwise work great. It does pronounce street and business names a lot better than the 1350 or the 50.

Not happy
Does what it says it will. But I find it hard to use. I had a TomTom for five years. I can't seem to get used to the interface. Probably a very good buy for most people.
