 Garmin Nuvi 680 September 6, 2007
I am extremely pleased with this product and Amazons price. Two of my relativies are following suit by purchasing their own "Nuvi680"
It finds everyplace! September 1, 2007

I had a Mio that could not even find my home and I made the mistake of taking it to Chicago with me...for any of you who have a "not so good" GPS Navigation system - the turn right the U TURN WHERE POSSIBLE voice is very annoyoying - my Mio had me lost all the time. The Garmin 680 has been fantastic - I love the "take next right on Washington Blvd" instructions that make finding your way in a city you don't know so much easier. I will be back in Chicago shortly and am expecting to be able to find my way around with no issues. Unit is a little pricey but worth it if you love to travel and hate to be lost.
 MSN traffic useless in New York City August 31, 2007
14 out of 14 found this review helpful
MSN traffic is very inaccurate for New York City and takes a long time to load. Signal also seems to be very sporadic in Manhattan and Brooklyn. It always gives erroneous information for inbound Holland Tunnel due to some MSN mapping issues. Four times it took me to Holland Tunnel only to find myself stuck in worse traffic than GWB or Lincoln. I gave it a good try for 2 months and I gave up. The gas price, movie, and weather info are also inaccurate or out of date.
I ended up buying the GTM 20 receiver and was able to hook the Nuvi 680 to use TMC Clear channel traffic. The traffic info on TMC is MUCH more accurate. The FM signal for TMC is much stronger.
If you live in NYC, you would be wise to get the Nuvi 660 instead (it uses the TMC Clear channel traffic info). I have no issue with the GPS itself.
It is a Garmin August 31, 2007

This is my 2nd Garmin GPS. So easy to use. MSN Direct, I'm on the very edge of the coverage map. Yes works like a charm for me. Make sure to download latest firmware, without it MSN and Bluetooth seemed to have a few problems. ***** Stars
Very useful August 31, 2007

A very useful tool for getting places. The traffic information displayed on the device with the MSN receiver was more helpful that I would have realized before I bought it. The maps are good and the interface is intuitive. I signed up for a subscription to Audible which also surprised me as a nice way to do something useful on a long drive. The only downside was that the radio station transmitter was too weak to work very well in my car (I switched back to the internal speeaker).
