eh, not too great
Pros
brand, style, gets you where you want to go (if on route), learn from commands
Cons
quiet voice commands, takes forever to re-route, only works when plugged in
Recommended it?
No
UPS guy came yesterday; so I got my GPS. Looks great, works great - when you're taking the route it wants you to take. If you get off track, you're screwed. Also, if you're looking up a place, like a restaurant or mall, it takes FOREVER to locate them. One nice thing though, in comparison to the Garmin, is that it has little gas pumps etc. wherever they are located on the road or off an exit. Haven't used the MP3 capabilities yet, but I'll get there when I have some free time. Oh, and another thing that totally sucks - it doesn't work unless it's plugged in! The voice commands are nice though, since it'll say "take a slight right onto I-85 South" rather than "turn right". But really, it's nothing great. I bought it for the mere fact that it's Alpine, but I think they should just stick to sound rather than a GPS.
