 over all i'm pleased with the product August 15, 2008
Johnny Martinez (Philadelphia, PA, USA)
The only reason i haven't rated it a perfect 5, is due to the fact that at times, even when completely still and in plain view of the sky, the GPS unit will take 1-2 full minutes to lock on to the satellite. At times the routes provides make no sense.. and seem unnecessarily long. That may be a problem with all Garmin units, so i can't fault this specific model. I upgraded to the 2009 Maps a couple days after buying it. I wasn't even aware they had come out with anything beyond the 08 maps. But that's my fault for not keeping myself updated. so all in all, i will stick with 4/5 stars. Only because i wouldn't call it perfect.
Very handy, a little quirky August 14, 2008

The Garmin is incredibly easy to use right out of the box, and very handy for finding your way around. The only negative: sometimes the device has trouble locating the satellite, so you have to wait (or drive around the old-fashioned way).

This GPS works great for directions and is very easy to use. It is highly recommended.
Great GPS for the masses. August 13, 2008

This nuvi 650 was my first GPS. Got the first one and it had a dead pixel. Amazon was amazing and cross shipped a new one to me and it was here the very next morning. I wish that the volume on the GPS would get louder as you cant hear it with windows down or music turned on. Other than that it is absolutely fantastic. I have had nothing but good experiences with amazon! For the price, you cant beat this 650 w/ free shipping.
Absolutely the best for $$$ August 13, 2008

I strongly recommend this product for people with the same requirements as me: just a navigation unit. I specifically did not care for the hands-free option or radio transmitter option - just a good navigation unit. Hands-free is great, but I don't want to have this in the car all the time. Radio transmitter is a great idea - but as in other ones I tried before, this one (so I've read) is no better. The quality just does not cut it for me. Bottom line: wide-screen, reliable, easy-to-use, awesome price, free 2009 maps, etc. What more could you want?
Note: I did extensive reading on other units before buying this one. Some are pretier and may have a few extra bells, but when it came to overall quality (not even price), this seemed to be the best choice.
