Summary: Includes a Trojan Horse
Comment: Works about as well as any other brand on the market, but after using it for a year the unit is programmed to force a "Map Update Notice" screen to pop up each time the unit is turned on.. Very annoying because that screen stays on unless you acknowledge it by pushing "OK"! Who wnats to pay for a "tool" and then have it change its ease of use after a year. This "feature" was not part of the specs when I bought it!!!

Summary: The NUVI is great, Amazon not so great.
Comment: First off I really like my NUVI200 by Garmin. It has gotten me to where I needed to be. My only con, and it is more my problem then the units is the touch screen is too small for my fingers. I have big hands and I would sometime hit a button wrong but i have fixed this by takeing one of my kid's DS styless and use it on the screen. Works well. MY problem is with Amazons "free" shipping. It took almost 2 weeks to get my item. I was not in a hurry but it was sent in such a roundabout way that i will never use it again. I live in New Jersey and the item was sent from Las Vegas distribution center rather then one on the east coast. Then trucked to southern Cali before shipping across the country. My GPS needed a GPS.

Summary: Watch out -- Map Updates cost $70 +
Comment: I purchased my Garmin in November 2007. In September 2008, the Garmin completely stopped functioning and directed me to purchase a map update on their site. I went to the site and discovered that I needed to first purchase a USB cable to connect the device. $20 and two weeks later, the cable arrived.

I logged onto the Garmin's website and went through an hour long product registration process to see if I qualified for a free map update. At the end of a frustrating hour long registration, I was told that I did not qualify for a free map update and got a 10% coupon for select products.

The map update for this device is $70 and the 10% discount did not apply to this update. Since my Garmin is useless without this update, I decided purchase it. The download took 4 hours on a high speed connection. If you purchase this device, beware that annual updates will cost almost as much as the device.
