Garmin nuvi

Date of Review:  Oct 14, 2009
Review: I got this as a christmas gift, and cannot count how many times I've used it. I love this thing! It's easy to use, and small enough to tuck into my purse when I go places.

garmin is by far the best gps

Date of Review:  Oct 14, 2009
Review: I have had no problems with my Garmin. Garmin is by far the best gps i have used so far. Takes a little over 15 sec for me to get position. The GPS has lots of features and has Europe maps too for those who want to backpack in Europe.
