I just purchased a NAVU83T. I got a excellent price on the unit. I read all the reviews and decided to purchase the unit on a leap of faith. from Amazon.com bad item glass is the worse.. i drop mines from the dashboard landed on my shifter and broke the screen.. from Amazon.com This is a great GPS. I bought a refurbished one and compared it side by side with my dealer installed Toyota Prius GPS and found it really matching up with the > $1,000 Toyota GPS system, plus the convenience of bringing it to my desk and connecting with computer via USB to manage multiple destinations, especially when planning a long trip; and even while I'm searching the Google map. from Amazon.com I'm very disappointed with Sony's VERY POOR routing software. I've used both TomTom and Garmin which are both way better. from Amazon.com I ordered this GPS for an upcoming set of trips I have to take this year. After purchasing it in early March, I updated the firmware which improved the functionality substantially from its original state. from Amazon.com I got this SONY NV-U83T 2 weeks ago. Work fine from Amazon.com Product works as advertised with reasonably fast signal pickup. Speakers are adequate and the unit is easy to read. Battery life could be better and a map update would be helpful. from Amazon.com I just bought this product. It doesn't even compare to a Garmin. from Amazon.com Looks the part but is very slow both in terms of initialization (allow 10mins for it to determine your trip starting point) and in terms of directions while on the move. Minor junctions often are missed. from Amazon.com The NVU83T is a feature-rich, reasonably user-friendly GPS device that meets most of my requirements at least half-way. In addition, it offers many features that I will probably never need but it's good to know they exist. from Amazon.com
