 Garmin 260 GSP Navigator February 24, 2008
Seller shipped item promptly and it arrived in good condition. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
 Poor Customer Svc at Garmin February 24, 2008
I had the same problem with large chain stores, small malls etc. They just aren't in there. It was extremely frustrating and I wanted to file a complaint. All I got was, "go to map errors". That did not satisfy me, why should others get stuck with incomplete information??? They should not have released this product unless it was absolutely correct. The guy at Garmin said "its the map people". HUH? If you get to keep my $250 you should check on the MAP people. I tried reaching a management person to complain to, well GOOD LUCK reaching anyone in authority at Garmin.
 A great, affordable GPS unit February 24, 2008
I have been using the Nuvi 260 for about a month now. I am extremely pleased with it. Before purchasing, I was looking for a unit that was easy to use, had text-to-speech (TTS) capability (would say the street names, etc.) and had easy to use/find Points of Interest.
This unit has all that and the maps are extremely easy to read. We have not had any errors with bad directions, etc.. Over the past month, we have used it even if we knew the directions to our destination, just to test out the route it gave. Sometimes, we chose a different route based on known traffic patterns, etc., but the routes it gave were reasonable. I was impressed that a recently built bypass was recognized in the maps.
As for ease of use, we literally took this unit out of the box and started to use it. All of the controls are very easy to find/adjust and the battery keeps its charge for a respectable amount of time.
I do wish it came with an AC adapter, but if you are looking for an affordable, easy to use, up-to-date GPS unit with a respectable number of features, this is a great little unit.
**Amazon order note: Although we ordered a Nuvi 260 and the invoice and even the BOX said we received a 260, the unit we originally received was a Nuvi 250. It was only when we were trying to listen to the TTS function that we realized we had the wrong unit. The 250 does not have TTS. Actually, this is the only reason we chose the 260 over the 250.
At any rate, Amazon replaced the unit and I had the new one in my hands within 5 business days. Just make sure you look at the unit and the box to make sure you get the unit that you ordered!!

Garmin nüvi 260 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator
This product was just wonderful. We took it on a trip to Florida and was able to get from one spot to another without any problems. Another nice feature was the fact that we could punch in a name of a restaurant and get its phone number to make reservations.
Great Buy! February 22, 2008
I bought the Garmin Nuvi 260 after my dad got his. This is a must if you travel a lot or if you move to a new area. No more printing directions from the internet and trying to read a map while driving... this GPS receiver will get you there! Only drawback is that it does not contain maps of some new roads or housing developments. Overall, it is money well spent. Two thumbs up!
