I use this gps when I go hiking. It is excellent at getting me to my hikes. I used to print out driving directions from the 'net and read them while I was driving but this is much safer and easier. I just tell the gps where I am going and it gets me there safely and easily. It doesn't have all of the bells and whistles of the overpriced gps units like voice input or cell phone interface, just what I really need; good driving directions. If you are looking for a good, basic GPS then this one is a great option.

didn't love it.
By jzVerified Reviewer from boston, ma on 1/2/2008
How long have you owned it:
A month or less
Describe Yourself:
Bad With Directions, Frequent Traveler, Technically Challenged
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

actually, i returned it and i'll wait for the next generation of gps's. maybe it's good if you don't know where you're going at all...but traveling in the city i always *almost* know where i'm going and it just wasn't as good as calling my mom on my mobile when i was lost. it didn't know some basic routes and it took me way out of my way a couple of times. i returned it before i threw it out the window.
