Garmin Nuvi 260W - 4.4 in. Car GPS Receiver

This may be the 3rd GPS system that I've owned. My very first was an older Garmin design. My 2nd was an additional manufacturer. I made a decision to purchase the Garmin 260W simply because I liked the very first Garmin much better than another manufacturer.

I purchased this system on the internet on the Monday afternoon and it showed up on Thursday which was two days prior to the scheduled delivery date. The system worked excellent correct out from the box. My spouse utilized it instantly.

Because this design may be out for more than a 12 months it's Really Essential to register the system and revise the roadmaps. My system arrived with 2007 roadmaps which I up-to-date to 2010 roadmaps. The up-to-date roadmaps are free of charge (1 time revise). I linked the system to some personal computer and went towards the Garmin internet website. The registration/update procedure was simple (nearly automated). The unit's operating software program (firmware) was also up-to-date. The entire procedure took nearly two several hours (simply because the map file is big) however it was simple.

The 260W is really a excellent system. It's easy to make use of. Every thing functions exactly like it's designed to. This system is for my spouse. She does not use functions like bluetooth, mp3 or FM transmitter so this system is ideal for her. We each like Garmin's the very best.

In the Garmin web site, I downloaded a few new voices along with a automobile that appears a great deal such as the 1 she drives.

I'm really content with this particular buy.
