Having been a Garmin owner for about 5 years I had no doubt what brand I was going to buy, my old Garmin served me well but it was time for a new one and the wide screen was a key feature I wanted in my new one.The screen is impressive, while going from 4.3" to 5" does not sound like much it is really amazing how much more map and information that fits well on the screen. The screen itself is anti-glare that works, and very bright if you want it, I have the brightness at 60% and that is fine even in bright sunlight. The images are very crisp and clear, street names and such are auto-sized to not obstruct the map but big enough to read easily. The volume when it is reading out direction is also outstanding, so loud I have it also on 60%. So a solid 5 Stars on the screen and voice volume, as well as the pronunciation of the street names!Quirk: When I first got it I was in my office and opened it, plugged it in to just power and fired it up, it kept asking for me...

*** UPDATE at the bottom of this review (February 2012)***Background - I own a lot of technology. I like electronic toys and I indulge myself in whatever the latest gadget is. This has given me a broad taste in different segments of gadgets, and a pretty good eye for what works and what does not work.Some convergence works but to date, most just plain suck (January 2011). Prime example of poor convergence is my iPhone 4 and Apple App Store GPS software like Navigon, Garmin, TomTom, MotionX, iGO, GlobalNav, MapQuest, Google and others. I tried them all - and in one way or another, they all suck. Why? Because the iPhone is primarily a mobile phone and an iPod. When an SMS message comes in, or a Facebook alert, or a Calendar alert, or a phone call, it either distracts or switches away from GPS navigation. Not a good idea when driving, far less when driving in unfamiliar areas!!!Convergence in GPS mapping systems is completely understandable. Magellan,...

Researching GPS devices was and is worse than buying a car with all the different product offerings and features plus none of the model numbering seems to make sense which was even more frustrating. You can't tell a low end unit from a high end unit. Garmin is no different either.Through all of that I am very pleased that I settled on the Garmin 1450. IMO Garmin has made a wonderful device. The UI is very intuitive and very easy to operate even with my big hands. The touch screen is very accurate and responsive. From power up to satelite acquisiiton takes seconds. The turn by turn instructions are very clear but a bit too chatty. We have found the street name pronunciations fairly entertaining. The points of interest have been pretty accurate as has the gas station mapping and the hospitals and such. The bread and butter of a GPS is really whether it can get you where you need to go especially if you as the operator have no idea. I have travelled outside my area of...

8:50 a.m. Police responded to the intersection of Church Street and Wedgemere Avenue for a motor vehicle accident. Upon arrival police discovered that a 1998 Toyota Corolla, a 2012 Audi Q5, and a 2004 GMC Sierra had collided in the intersection. A witness stated that a vehicle had stopped on Church to allow the Audi to turn left from Wedgemere onto Church. However, the Corolla reportedly passed the stopped vehicle, resulting in a collision with the Audi that resulted in major front-end damage for both vehicles. The Corolla then backed up into the GMC, causing additional minor damage. A female passenger in the Corolla was transported to Winchester Hospital for chest pains, and the Corolla’s operator was issued a citation for passing where prohibited and failing to keep right of the yellow line.
4:42 p.m. A Wildwood Cemetery employee found a Massachusetts license plate on the cemetery grounds and returned it to police. Police traced the plate to a man in Reading who confirmed being in the cemetery for a funeral several days ago.

Question about a car GPS Garmin or Magellen?
Mar 11, 2008 by Captain DaveI want one of these. I do not have Bluetooth or voice messages, but also want a good one. I hear Garmin lock up sometimes. What would you recommend and why. Thank you.
Hi Captain Dave,
I would go with the Garmin in a heartbeat. We use them all the time and never have a problem.
Right now a great buy at Amazon is the Garmin 250W. A great wide screen display. No Bluetooth, voice to text or movie shows - just a good GPS. It comes preloaded with maps of the US & Canada, has a very nice intuitive user interface and is only $235 postpaid. It is a great buy.
If you don't need maps of Alaska or Canada get the 200W for $200
Check out the 250W here - http://www.amazon.ch-Widescreen-Navigator/dp/B000REECKS/re com/Garmin-250W-4-3-In f = pd_bbs_sr_1? ie = UTF8 & s = electronics and AMP; qid = 1205521814 & SR = 8-1.

How can I connect my Garmin GPS to my car stereo so it interrupts my music when it says a command?
Apr 09, 2007 by cuddle1979I want to connect my Garmin Nuvi 360 to my Mazda 6 car stero. I know how to connect it via an FM modulator, but can I make it so it will interrupt what I am listening to in order to state the commands (not over the music)? Any thoughts?

No, but you can play MP3 files through the car stereo from the Garmin Nuvi if you use a cassette adapter.
Download your MP3 audio files to the Garmin and play them while you're driving. The Garmin will interrupt the music when it needs to state a command. Use a cassette adapter (they usually come with CD players) and hook it up through the headphone jack and to your cassette player so you can hear the Garmin through the car's stereo!

- Unless your stock system has a mute function in the wiring setup...doubt it would work. Some after market head units have a mute wire for connection to a cell phone. When the phone rings, your system mutes. Not sure if Garmin provides this sort of output either. The FM modulated setup just puts the voice into your radio when it speaks.
I would contact Garmin tech support for more options.
