In addition, nuvi 260W accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs. Includes Vehicle Suction Cup Mount, Power Cable, Dashboard Disc & Quick Start Manual

5 out of 5 stars good gps   July 24, 2008
It's an easy to use gps with great support. I down loaded the newest maps and other voice and vehicle icons. I have not had any problems. It was recommended to me and I recommend it to others.


5 out of 5 stars Garmin Nuvi 260W   July 24, 2008
Excellent. Almost immediate signal acquisition, works beautifully. Only drawback (and not for me, since I already had a cable from another GPS) was the fact that the USB cable to connect it to the computer was necessary for product registration (and, of course, software updates). I think this item should be included with the unit, or at least the necessity of it disclosed before purchase.


3 out of 5 stars Where are the satellites?   July 23, 2008
This unit takes a very, very long time to find the satellites. On a recent trip to California, I sat in the rental car for 15-20 minutes while the unit searched for satellites. I must say that it worked perfectly once it was in touch with the satellites, announcing every street name and turn. If I missed a turn it recalculated my route very quickly, I never got lost. It was a minimum of 10 minutes every time I turned it on for satellite communication.


4 out of 5 stars Very good poduct, but fairly basic   July 23, 2008
I've had my 260W on a long trip now. Nice display, enough detail, and good local directions. I found long routes a little frustrating since the chosen route wouldn't always be the one I would choose because of known congestion. Only stores one waypoint ("Via") for a destination. Not able to download routes, trips or waypoints. I wasn't ready to invest in more features without trying out the technology. It does whet my appetite for a more capable GPS. Excellent for basic navigation.


5 out of 5 stars Great Product   July 22, 2008
Bought it, plugged it in and took off on a 2400 mile round trip. Absolutely no problems. I found it very intuitive as I didn't even bother to read the manual. I'm sure it does more than I used it for, but as a navigator it was terrific. Glad I paid a little extra to get the voice guidance model - nice to be reminded when turns are coming up. Only complaint is that the price dropped 2 weeks after I bought, but I guess that's the way it goes with electronics. Highly recommend.
