 Rating:  - Absolutely superbThis was my first sat-nav and I have absolutely no regrets about buying it. It's ridiculously easy to use, with a clear display and excellent voice instructions which are perfectly audible even in an open-topped car! It's also a convenient size for slipping into a jacket pocket when you leave the car for a even a few minutes. With regard to the "problems" that have been mentioned elsewhere - there have been occasions when it's taken some time to get a signal, but those occasions have ...

At first i was a little wary because of how cheap it was, but was pleasantly suprised with it. i loved it! very easy to use and very compact. its small enough to pop in your handbag when you finish driving. i would definetely recommend this one to anyone! Rating: - The Garmin 300 Wonder!It is indeed usable straight from the box as it is fully charged. A few minutes for the once only connection to the satellites and it was ready to go. Nice to see a neat carry case included along with a USB lead and car lead both of which can be used to charge the unit so no need to buy any extras. The windscreen sucker works fine once you have cleaned the windscreen! Instructions are adequate but I went to the Garmin site and downloaded the manual (free) which tells you everything. I ... Read More Rating:  - little gem of a nuvi!Having read the other positive reviews about the Nuvi 300, I took the plunge and bought one. At £80 I think that it is easily worth the money, the unit quickly powered up to get it's position. It fits easily to the windscreen through it's mount and easily detaches when not required. The unit is small enough to fit into your pocket with the supplied case to protect it. The first time I used it on a route I deliberately took different routes away from suggested route, it quickly recalculates the new route ... Read More Rating: - Very good - but (for me) one major flaw.This is my first foray into satnav. I was impressed. It works 'out of the box' and is simple to use. I've had this for over a year now and use it on most journeys, although I only use the navigation when I'm going somewhere I'm unfamiliar with. On the navigation front, it's rarely wrong - direction wise - and the eta is spot on too. I've used the updates over the web without a hitch, and downloaded a free-trial speed camera db. Nice, as after the trial period you still have the db, albeit ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
