Garmin - Nuvi 750 — 

I was so excited about the Garmin Nuvi-750 but have been disappointed.  First of all it is hard to use as it isn't very intuitive for me.  It is missing many streets and doesn't seem to take me on the routes that would be the most direct.  The holder for my dash keeps falling off.  The information says you can download information from Map quest but that doesn't work very will.  It takes a long time to find a satellite and sometimes I can be several miles down the road before it finds the satellite.  I don't like how you have to start over if you want to look something up.  I tried to synch it with my phone so I could call from the garmin using blue tooth but it would never work.  I was able to set up this synching with a car gps and the same phone I have.  I find the garmin site to be confusing and not easy to use when I wanted to update the maps.  Also why should you have to update maps on a brand new product.  That was a real negative for me.  After mentioning all of the negative I still use the product but don't find it very satisfying.
