I bought the Garmin Nuvi from a "buy the best in class" attitude. I dont have any "huge" complaints about this unit with the exception that it did not "exceed" my expectation. Soon after buying, we had a trip to Canada (Ontario, Toronto) and the GPS did really well. It is EXCELLENT on taking detours and saved us a hell of time in traffic situations. As for features are concerned here are the details:
1. Bluetooth: Very good use. Excellent clarity and works wonderfully with bluetooth enabled phones (I have a AT&T Tilt). Replicates Address books etc., last dialed numbers et al
2. FM Transmitter: Not useful AT ALL !! Please do not pay high price for a product just for this feature. The noise from FM channel is very high and exteremly poor quality.
3. Navigation ability: Average. Does well to alert the driver well ahead in time. Although it did perform very well in Canada, in Chicago it has been average. From the Northern Suburbs to go to the City, it by default chooses local roads against freeways (Not sure if it does that to avoid the constructions on Edens) but takes definitely longer to arrive to destination. I had to force it to recalculate by taking the freeway. It also has trouble finding some of the addresses in subdivisions that are 3-4 years old in Vernon Hills!! NOT GOOD !! I had read that Garmin was one of the best in Navigation accuracy, but dont agree with that now. So in all Navigation ability is average.
4. POI's and other extras: FANTASTIC !! I can pull up restaurants around anyplace I go, Fuel, shopping etc. Has been a life saver especially in finding gas stations at unknown places that I couldnt have done without a GPS.
5. Traffic Alert: ALthough I have 3 months free subscription, not sure how to use this function. I tuned on to FM transmitter thinking that Unit may alert me but it did not. Not sure if I need to do anything different to configure it to work. But did NOT work for me when needed!!
6. Screen size: Excellent. I am glad it has a 4.3" screen. Very easy to look at.
In all I would rather go for the Nuvi 350 or anything lower than 660 and not pay for these other extra gizmos that dont seem to provide you any value. Thinking of exchanging mine!
Garmin Nuvi 660 & Friction Pad July 24, 2008
Awesome GPS, especially for the price. Directions were spot on and never missed a turn throughout a recent trip through the northeast and Canada. Bluetooth worked flawlessly picking up and displaying all calls. Definitely get the dash friction mount instead of the windshield mount. Easier to move from car to car and you can position the GPS where you want.
Just works July 23, 2008
It works great but loses reception easily while going under a bridge or overpass. It doesn't acquire location easily.
