No-frills GPS that works

Date of Review:  Mar 29, 2009
The Bottom Line: Inexpensive GPS gets you where you want to go with no fuss.
Review: After my friend got tired of me borrowing his Garmin GPS all the time, I saw this Garmin Nuvi 205W on sale near Christmas so I decided to get my own.

This is a basic, no-frills GPS. It will give you directions, has a large points of interest...

Covers the Basics

Date of Review:  May 11, 2009
The Bottom Line: This unit covers the basics well, if you can deal with the navigational quirks and poor map detail. The lack of included accessories is embarrassing for Garmin.
Review: ***NOTE! - This review is for the Garmin Nuvi 205, not the 205W. When I wrote it, I did use the page for the correct model number, but for some reason Epinions moved it here.***


Perhaps my experience with the Nuvi 205 is a reflection of...

An economical entry level GPS.

Date of Review:  May 19, 2009
The Bottom Line: A basic entry level GPS without all the bells and whistles. It does what it says it does.
Review: I purchased this GPS unit for my mom on mother's day. Last Sunday we finally opened it up and I helped her sort through the bits and peices of the GPS unit.

Out of box experience to be honest was a bit disappointing. Let me explain why. I...

This is a great entry level GPS unit that doesn't have extraneous features.
5/5 stars
I like it a lot. It really helps me find my way around. The search feature is a bit slow, the mount falls off eventually, but overall I think it's a good deal. Cons: Improve mount so it doesn't fall off

I'll Never Get Lost Again With My Garmin Nuvi 205W!
5/5 stars
Being notorious for getting lost, I never liked to drive to a new place in my car... until I got my Garmin Nuvi 205W GPS navigator I simply punch in the address, or have Nuvi look up the location for me, and I've got turn-by-turn directions and a map to bring me to my destination Pros: User Friendly, Directions and Maps are very clear, Impossible to get lost Cons: Maps must be updated to stay accurate

Garmin Nuvi 205W GPS
5/5 stars
This is one of the nicer GPS systems that I have ever seen. The screen is larger than most I have viewed and it comes with a lot of extra accessories, which is a nice bonus The accessories it comes with allows you to mount the GPS onto your bike as well as using it in your car, which most people would do. The brand Garmin is well known and I believe it's worth the buy, especially if you find yourself getting lost a lot Blog: http://angelone.tumblr.comTwitter: http://twitter.com/frankangelone YouTube Screencast Reviews: http://youtube.com/user/giantsfan92 Live Stream: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/frank-angeloneMake your own product reviews on Expo TV:: http://www.expotv.com/raf/fjangelone Pros: Screen size, A lot of accessories, Thin GPS

Garmin nuvi 205 Portable GPS Navigator keeps you from getting lost!
5/5 stars
My Garmin nuvi 205 Portable GPS Navigator is my new best friend. It's incredibly easy to use, and now I never have to worry about getting lost again. With a price tag of under 200, it's a great deal. I love it
