Garmin - Nuvi 200 Review

overall this is a good gps unit to buy. i use is mainly for travelling in the state of texas so don't need to have a lot of maps installed. the unit has a limited memory so updating maps can be a hassle. you need to delete a lot of non-essential stuff to get more maps in there.

the voice navigation is nice to have as it keeps you on track, the gps will also automatically recaculate your route if you make a detour

you can save address in the memory which makes it easy to get to your favorite places. the first address that i stored was home so that wherever i am i can get home easily

the unit is not always accurate when you ask it to find places when looking for shopping but i don't blame the unit i blame the information that is being supplied to the sattelites that feed it

the unit is easy to plug into your computer with a usb cable. the unit does not come with a cable but you can find the right cable as is the mini usb cable is a common one. you can also download a specific route from the garmin site

the garmin sit has routes to places where people have placed journals so the gps can be used to have fun

the unit also has the ability to be used in walking mode which is quite useful if you want to know what is within walking distance from where you are
