    Pros: the usability and it's large screen.

    Cons: I had the GARMIN Nuvi 680 before the speaker went out in it. Now I have one that doesn't stay on when it apparently get's a little warm. And the Blue tooth looses the call in middle of the conversation The Nuvi 765 is a piece of junk

    Summary: As I said before it's a very easy GPS to use but when I have had to take back 2 of them and the same thing occures I don't find that a very reliable product. 1 Loss of the Blue toothe while in conversation. 2 The GPS keeps tuning off, and again I am not sure if it's heat related or if it's just a piece of junk. I use my GPS for work and I was told that this model the Nuvi 765 was the up grade from the nuvi 680. I do want to comment that the Nuvi 765 is not very accurate either. I would not by this Nuvi 765 but since I have a 4 year extended warranty on my original 680 I will wait and HOPE that Garmin comes out with something that is more reliable

    Hey how are you doing. I've been a long time Garmin user. I'm also a computer Technician. I can understand how you feel about the 765T. I just purchased the 755T over a magallan 4370 due to freeze ups and inproper routing.

    When I tried the 765T in the store I had the same shut down issue But like with computers and so it could be a hardware issue or software issue.

    I called Garmin and asked them if there was a firmware or Operating System Update for this shut down problem. They checked the database and yes there is.

    Since I have not recived the unit yet I don't know if it works. usuallly it doesn.

    However I agree with you that companies should not sell products that have flaws in them until they are fixed. The only way to to do that is to turn the clock back to the 1970's and 1980's when someone actually gave a dam about there work.
