I recently bought this navigation system for my car. I am not familiar at all with the roads in my city and this little device has already helped me SO much. It's extremely easy to use. It's got a few options for adding destinations - you can either put in the address (even takes partials), or you can search through different categories allowing it to pinpoint the closest in the region and how far away from you they are.
The navigation system itself can be set to 2D or 3D. Both are pretty much the same, but the 3D takes a bit of time to get used to. When in downtown areas, some buildings even appear as 3D structures!
The voice navigation is also quite useful. You can set it to a male or female voice, set the volume level, and when he/she speaks.
Destinations can be saved into the GPS system's built in memory allowing you to just scroll through your address book instead of having to enter the destination's address every single time.
A built in SD card slot allows you to playback music and view pictures on the GPS device itself. Although it may not be too useful if you're in a car, if you're using the GPS system while riding a bike or walking down streets, it can be kind of like a GPS System + mp3 player in one gadget.
The settings on the device allow you to turn on and off where you're willing to drive. For example, if you're not willing to drive on roads you have to pay a toll for, or highways, you can just uncheck the categories in the options. The GPS system will now only calculate routes that don't involve what you still have checked.
I definitely recommend this GPS system to anyone in need of one. Extremely happy with my purchase.
