 Excellent!! Nuvi 670 September 20, 2008
I have only had the unit a few days but so far it is excellent. The 670 came with older maps and Garmin updated both the N.A. map and Europe map for free. Europe was updated online and took a few hours to download with my slow internet connection. Garmin customer service sent the N.A. map DVD via mail which took 3 or 4 days to receive. Hold time for customer service was about 2 minutes.
The unit locks the GPS signal within seconds both indoors and out. Routing has been accurate and re-routing is very quick. You can in fact add stops along the way to a destination. Spoken directions are clear and precise.
One issue that I had initially was that turns were announced way too close to the actual turn. However, after updating to the latest N.A. map that issue is not longer present. Turns are announced far enough in advance of the turn. I also think that more announcements are made as a result of the update.
I highly recommend this GPS. Garmin customer service seems very good also.

Got this one specifically because I was going on a trip to Europe and didn't want to deal with downloading or buying a memory card with additional maps. Worked great in Ireland an well as California. Menus are intuitive, though some features (like volume control) can take a number of touchscreen button pushes to access. Nice being able to slide a SD card with MP3 files in and listen through the unit's speaker, headphones, or car's radio via FM transmission (FM works well in some areas, not others).
Having built-in traffic is GREAT! And it gives a freeway map showing yellow and red lines where the traffic is slowed,once gave a "traffic slowing" verbal warning about one mile before I hit a sea of red lights, and gives a written description of local traffic tie-ups (from what exit to what exit, etc.). Only caveat is the traffic warnings are not always completely reliable (probably takes awhile for the source of info to get updated).
POI feature has been wonderful. Want to know where the closest Starbucks is? It'll tell you. Want to find local restaurants? A list will appear. Very handy and pretty darn accurate (well, except for the time it led us to what "used" to be a gas station....).
Main reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is the bluetooth isn't so great. Works OK but I've been told my voice isn't so clear on the other end.
So buy this as a good, solid GPS for the price and consider the extras like playing music, bluetooth, etc. a bonus.

I really love this unit. I have come across a couple of street name errors so far, however, I am very satisfied this unit. Very simple to understand and navigate!

After only a month we find that we just can't live without it. Going to Italy next month and we'll see how well it speaks Italian. Some of the directions seem a little out of the way but you always end up where you're supposed to be. A good value.
