Garmin nuvi® 255W GPS Receiver

from www.amazon.com
after taking a trip to a different city, alone, getting lost, and not even being able to find the hospital i was going to, i decided it was time for a gps.
from www.amazon.com
some downsides is that it takes us through some convoluted routes and when you're in a city like baltimore, it can be a little scary, but i'm sure this is the case with most navigators.
from www.amazon.com
the nuvi 255w appealed due the size of the unit and one's ability to remove it from the car and carry it around as a hand held if walking city streets.
from www.amazon.com
here is my opinion after using it for a week and a trip to new york city from upstate new york area.
from www.amazon.com

from Dave from Simpsonville, SC, www.circuitcity.com
it's more of a toy to us than a practical or necessary device but i can see where it would be mighty handy for the purposes of delivery or getting through a city like boston.

i also like several of the msn direct features, like movie times and local events, and the traffic flow information is really handy, especially in a city you're not intimately familiar with.

this is a great product for finding your way, and special sites outside of the center of a large city.

around town the msn direct is great if you live in a major city as i have found the traffic warnings, the location more so than the time of delay, to be very helpful and accurate.
