happy but have some issues October 24, 2008

Quick review.
Set up was really easy out of the box.
Disappointed in the non yellow page feature - ie they have points of interest but they do not include everything that you can get in a GPS of a rental car. (that came with a yellow page lookup feature that seemed to have everything). However if you know the address of the Point of Interest you can type it in.
Really liked the on screen touch display. The voice recognition is excellent.
Bluetooth with my phone tends to lock up the device. Have to take the battery out to unlock it.
Navigation is good.
MSN direct is ok. Best feature is the address look up on your PC that you can then send to the device wirelessly. Very nice, just a little pre travel planning required. Worst feature is the very abbreviated news. Sometimes you get the headline, click on it for more info, and there is nothing.
Would I recommend the device...yes. Would I pay more than $500 for it. Nope.
almost perfect.... October 19, 2008

is the latest addition to GPS technology, the only negative point in my case, you do not have support for speech recognition in Portuguese, but the rest is fantastic. perfect.

I bought this GPS as an upgrade from the Garmin 350. I love my Garmin 350 and thought that upgrading to this 880 would be just as good and better, but I was wrong. The selling point for me with this unit was the speaking the name of the streets, voice command and the bigger screen.
I have to say the greatest feature of this GPS is the voice command. It worked very well, but the car has to be completely silent, you cannot have the radio on, or windows down. The probably with this GPS is the speaker just isn't loud enough you can barely hear the voice prompts with the volume all the way up. I did not have this problem with the 350. There were these annoying pops when the GPS was thinking, when gave it voice commands. The voice commands only work when the car is silent. The last is the price it's just to high for what it can do and the poor performance.
The voice command feature was so handy I tried hard to over look its down falls, but in the end I returned the unit. I will wait for the next generation Garmin's.
 Excellent Device!!! October 13, 2008
This device is the best I have had to date. I am a Garmin fan and the amount that they have packed into this is amazing. Bluetooth for phone connectivity and handsfree operation, awesome map, vehicle and voice updates, MSN direct receiver for up to date traffic, weather and many other features... it is an incredibly small package for all that is packed into this thing. It is really the device to own right now.
Excellent October 12, 2008
The Garmin 880 is an excellent driving aide. The graphics and audio features are superb. When positioned on a dash board, the display is easily readable in the day as well as the night. The unit's speech is clear and distinct; and the unit's response time is quick. It recalculates a new route to a destination when a turn is missed, at a rate that minimizes any deviation to travel time or distance traveled between two points.
