"Execl!ellent GPS"
on by drwheat57Pros Does everything my iQue 3600 & M5 have done for me.
Cons Can only utilize 1 "Via Point/Waypoint"
Summary The compact size, quick reroute when off course, easy of use and many built in capabilites are outstanding. I have been using the iQue M5 for several years so can compare both units. Other than being limited to only 1 VIA POINT in the route planning I find the Nuvi 260 to be very comparable to the iQue. I live in MN and I've never had a problem with installing my GPS low on the windshield. Cops would have to be extremely bored to write a ticket for that. I've also driven in CA frequently and no problem there either.

"Great GPS, easy to use!"
on by Evad310Pros Very accurate, fast draw time, clear voice
Cons Kind of slow load time
Summary I have had the opportunity to use many different GPS systems, and for the money, trust me, this one can't be beat. I would even recommend this one over the 650 and 660, although if you need the Bluetooth, then those are the way to go, but this one gives you a lot of bang for you buck. The draw time is great, the re-routing is very quick, and I haven't even come close to getting lost yet! Highly recommend this product!!!

"I like it , I like it , I like it"
on by regularjoe42Pros very accurate , good clear screen , good clear sound
Cons none as of yet
Summary If your looking for a good solid performer in a gps,then look no further.I'm sure this will fulfill your expectations..I know it did mine.
Garmin has a good reputation,and they stand behind what they sell.Their technical support is second to none - they'll take the time to help you out in whatever way they can.Your satisfaction really matters to them! I "definetly" give them two thumbs up! -
"Just a great little GPS. Does everything that you would want a GPS to do."
on by Gregory954Pros Picks up a satelite almost as soon as it turns on, even in cloudy weather. Very accurate directions.
Cons Does not come with a USB cable, or house charger
Summary Like I said above just a great basic GPS. Does everything you would want a GPS to do without the bells and whistles that you don't need. I would recommend this to anyone. Love the text to voice, I think that is a necessity. I wished it came in a wide version version, but beside that I am very happy with it.

"It takes me off my direct route too much."
on by heyroosterPros good graphics, great voice directions
Cons too many out of the way routes when there are more direct, more accurate routes. No way to make the route more direct
Summary Disappointed for a first gps device. Deciding if I should keep or go with a TomTom.
