Garmin nuvi 670

Pros: Good navigation, easy to use and set up.

Cons: Traffic updates cost extra. Feature does not work well.

The Bottom Line: If you are a feature freak, then get this model. Otherwise, opt for the (cheaper) basics.

Review: The nuvi 670 is loaded with a enormous amount of features compared to the Magellan 700 that I had been using before. The Magellan worked fine to get from A to B except the touch screen was getting unreliable and detected touches where there were...

The main reason I selected this unit was that it incorporates both...

Pros: Easy to use menu, great size, good battery life

Cons: No free map upgrades, no continuous track play feature on Mp3

The Bottom Line: Excellent choice for a portable navigation system - ease of use and full features make this a sound choice. One of the best electronic purchases I have made.

Review: Have travelled in Europe and US and found the 670 to be excellent for getting me around. European maps are accurate. The larger screen and narrow body make the unit portable for walking around on battery power. The blue tooth feature allows unit to...
