  Strengths: Large screen,voice commands, speed, performs well on road.

  Weaknesses:Poor web and phone support from Garmin and USB chipset problems with certain computers. Poor documentation supplied with unit. Had to hunt for answers on internet that should have been provided with product literature. I have learned more about my Nuvi 760 from non Garmin websites, which is a sad situation for Garmin to be in. As near as I can tell the other GPS companies are just as bad. As with most products in the electronics industry, they are not ready for prime time yet. Let the customer beta test them for you.

  Overall Evaluation: Good as long as you don't have to hook up to a computer or deal with Garmin.

  Strengths: LCD size, overall pakage and features

  Weaknesses:There is no way to have an overview of the itinerary, which is a problem since sometimes the guidance is erratic. Travelling through time zones is also an issue since the 760 only updates the time zone when you are in a large city. We drove from San Diego to Denver and did not get the right time zone change until we actually drove into Denver. Some of the addresses we were looking for or cities we were looking for were not found by the 760 even though the businesses had been open over a year and I did update the software. the POIs and addresses are still limited to mainly large cities

  Overall Evaluation: Overall a good product, GArmin still has some work to do to make it great.

  Strengths: Screen easy to read and colors vibrant. Bluetooth works great.

  Weaknesses:Speaker a little weak.

  Overall Evaluation: Buydig is great. I was worried about ordering from a site unknown to me but got my order in 2 days and it was a new unit. I have heard many horror stories about buying new and getting refurbished. I have only had the unit for one week so have not used all the features but so far it has been really good. I am no expert and this is my first gps but it does what I need.

  Strengths: Display is very clear, maps seem to be very good and really simple to use.

  Weaknesses:Maybe FM transmitter not so great but if I had to have a voice tell me where I am at or where I am going I would just take someone with me..

  Overall Evaluation: This is my first GPS. I did alot of research on different brands and models, Consumer Digest is a great place to get questions answered. This unit was really, really simple to use out of the box. The
