I have use various pocket pc navigation software and be quite sketpical at the 279.99 price at first . however , this be a great basic device for on the road travel . extremily user friendly and very easy to set up . I recommend this model over the over cxxx model because like I 90 % of the people that would use this device would probably stay in there region for example south east , north east , etc. . of course a 128 mb cd card be not go to cut it but I be sure you might have a extra one -lrb- there like 20.00 or so now -rrb- . all and all great device for a novice user . you average user do not need bluetooth , a mp3 player , traffic information , etc. . all the other feature that you get for $ 1,000 + my only complaint would be , you be unable to see the actual coordinate on the device ? you be unable to travel to coordinate only physical address . however , garmin do have software call mapsource which allow a user to upload he favorite to a computer and will allow you to see the gp coordinate . you can not complain for 279.99 for a automotive gp unit .
