5 out of 5 stars Garmin Portable GPS   January 9, 2009
This is a great device. I have used it multiple times and I am delighted with it. It has a great speaker system, works well on the road. I have yet to try it on a long walk, but I look forward to doing that soon. The product does not come with a wall charger. This was a bit disappointing, but I already had one on hand.


5 out of 5 stars good bang for the buck   January 9, 2009
I paid about $125 for this unit. I bought it for my retired parents in South FL so they wont be late for their multiple doctor's appointments. I have had several car GPS units and know that the many features can be confusing especially for the elderly. This unit is a charm. I used this unit in NJ for 3 weeks and before I handed it over to my folks I tested it from Orlando to Miami to Ft Meyers. I recommend this to anyone that wants basic reliable GPS without all the headaches of the extra features that will probably never get used.

2 out of 5 stars cute but not enough   January 8, 2009
Bought this for my daughter, she thought it was cute, but did not have the add on features she would of liked, so she returned it for one that suited her geek nature.
