  • Excellent GPS hardware + software package, with a few small weaknesses

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 18, 2006
    Pros: Excellent integration of hardware with 5 separate robust applications and map database
    Cons: Many minor weaknesses in the software feature set

    Summary: I wanted a simple, inexpensive way to add GPS functions to my Palm Treo 650 phone/PDA, and the GPS 10 Bluetooth receiver + Garmin's Que software seemed to fit the bill. For me, this setup was preferable to a stand-alone GPS unit for the car since I ... read more

    Pros: Accurate, easy to use, voice prompts, local information, good battery life
    Cons: Possible software compatibility issues leading to my PDA freezing on some occasions

    Summary: I've now been using this GPS with my iPAQ for 8 months, and have an update to my original review. Update: Some issues have become apparent. I'm not sure if they have to do with my PDA, or with the Garmin software or some combination. 1. My iPAQ ... read more

    Pros: Amazing: never get lost again! Works like a charm!
    Cons: Small Buttons on PDA difficult while driving. Other Maps for the world are expensive.

    Summary: A friend of mine had a Garmin Street Pilot 2610 in his car and I had found it to be amazing in its features and definitely very useful for someone that travels a lot like I do. I got lost in Ottawa a few weeks thereafter and could not get to a business ... read more

  • Amazing device -- Great Maps, Great Software, Great Unit! Wow!

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 29, 2005
    Pros: Great maps, great GPS reception, easy to use software that is POWERFUL and full featured.
    Cons: Lack of bundled mounts... But, you aren't forced to buy mounts that aren't needed.

    Summary: I recently decided to get a GPS solution for my car. I'm a computer consultant, so I travel a lot. I used to use Microsoft Streets and Trips to create a map of where I was going that day, but, there isn't exactly any easy way to flexibly change the order ... read more

  • Inexpensive, and MEMORY UPGRADABLE

    Sep 2, 2004
    Pros: Memory chip upgrades, up to 128mb Big screen
    Cons: Serial interface, no USB Battery drain during map transfer

    Summary: I have been using garmin GPS systems for auto navigation since 1996, and that's prior to having maps on the screen. I've had the Garmin emap for almost six years, and it has never once failed me when used in an area with an unobstructed view of the sky. ... read more

    Pros: Compact, lightweight, excellent navigational too - Nationwide
    Cons: The Learning Curve is high - takes a while to figure this gizmo out.

    Summary: Just moved to LA and was literally overwhelmed with the driving and how big this place is. Maps are useless and inches thick. I used MAPQUEST constantly even to get to the stores. If only I could get mapquest in my car...... Then I was turned on to ... read more

    Pros: All the capability of the E Trex plus sufficient map storage. Low price.
    Cons: Non-captive battery cover. Should COME WITH optional soft plastic case/cover. Won't work in dense woods.

    Summary: UPDATE: This unit is out of production. It connects with a serial cord, seems like Garmin is all USB now.I had to buy a Belkin serial/USB adapter to continue programmiing this unit with my new laptop. I have several pieces of Garmin GPS equipment, and
