Gives good directions most of the time January 6, 2009 I've had this a little over a year now. It has only steered me wrong in a bad way once but it turned out to be an exciting adventure. I need to upgrade the software and then it should be better. I do wish that I had a model that said the street name. Sometimes you'll be coming up to an intersection where it says to turn left or right, and there are two roads very close to each other so you end up keeping an eye on the nuvi and trying to watch the traffic and the street signs at once. My Dad just received a 255W for Christmas from my Mom and I think that's the way to go with the street pronounciation.
GPS City January 6, 2009 Try to match this deal.. as a gift.. has more of todays modes like biking and walking and a personal memory than my SUV's manufacturer GPS.. I'm telling ya WOW!! Paid @124.00 wide screen n everything.. soo happy.
-GARY IN LOWELL MA... i WOULD BUY A THOUSAND OF THESE BABIES
I love it! December 26, 2008 I love my new Garmin nuevi 200W 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator. My husband asked me why would I need it around town? I told him there are places I have not been before and need to get to. I have used it a few times and my husband has used it too. It takes the guessing out of getting to your destination you have not been to before. I would recommend it for anyone to use around their home town and/or for traveling.
ALL YOU NEED December 25, 2008 This units is basic but value for dollar it has it all. Why pay more when a year from now all the bells and whisles will cost less. LOVE IT
I love it - highly recommended! December 25, 2008 I used to always get lost. I could drive into cities I'd visited for years and manage to get lost. I would call my boyfriend to get me un-stuck and he'd patiently guide me back out to where I should be via my cellphone. Finally, he decided that he would help me help myself. He did a ton of research and decided to get me this Garmin nuevi 200W GPS as a present.
I've been using this for almost a year now and I *adore* it. It has been incredibly helpful on more occasions than I can count. I have all my main locations programmed into it now, and just its "time to arrival" feature is greatly helpful. I love that there's a one-button "take me home" selection. It makes me happy just to press it - to know that my nuvi will safely get me home no matter where I am!
Sure, being able to customize your pointer, your location icons and even the speaking voice are fun. You can put on a nightmarish voice for Halloween, and turn your pointer into a little sportscar. Really though, all of those pale next to its great functionality. You can turn on and off the voice - I prefer it off, my boyfriend prefers it on. If you get mixed up, it doesn't complain. It simply says "recalculating" and in a moment it has a new route for you!
Does it have issues? Sometimes the route it takes is a bit different than one I would take. No problem - I start on my preferred route and it quickly recalculates and knows where I'm going. There's also sometimes that it gets confused about whether you can turn left or right. For example, when I go to a certain destination, I get off the highway and need to turn left. The first time I went there, it told me to turn right - and then it told me to do a u-turn. For some reason it didn't think I could turn left. Every time I went to that location afterwards I had to remember to ignore the GPS after I got off the highway and to turn left even though it said to turn right. I wish there was a way to "train" the unit to go the way I told it to, rather than having to remember this "override" each time.
I love the way it turns black at night, white during the day all on its own, knowing the changing sunset and sunrise times. Its display is quite clear and very easy to read. I haven't had any problems with it getting satellite signals and have used it in a number of locations. I pack my GPS with me when I travel and it's been amazingly helpful in getting me around.
I can't see any reason to get any other unit. Maybe some act as MP3 players - but I already have a MP3 player. This does exactly what I want from a GPS - it gets me to my destination and gets me home again.
Highly recommended!
