if you want the real widescreen version, it’s the 265WT (notice the W) and it is currently $250.

I found the 265wt to do everything you”d expect from a unit costing $100 more. Great value.

I just bought this item few days ago and today I noticed there was a price drop.

Even though I still have not received the package, Amazon IS NOT willing to give me a refund for the price difference. Consider this next time you buy any item from Amazon!!!!

The answer I got from the customer representative was “I know you are concerned about the price you paid, and certainly understand if you choose to return the item and purchase it at a lower price.”

This navigation system is the second worst navigation system I’ve ever seen( Navigon being the worst)

1. There is actually no way to see the distance to destination which is the most standard feature of any navigation system.

Imaging you are on a long trip and everyone in the car is wondering how many more miles until your destination? There is no way to tell!

They find room to add the speed limit so the wife can complain that your speeding however their engineers can’t figure how to add the miles until your destination feature.

I called tech support and they told me that I have to see the miles to each turn and take a calculator to add up all the miles. Are you kidding me?

My Mio C310x is a million times better than this garmin unit.

2. Unable to tell what street you are currently on. This unit will only display the next street turn however will not show the street you are currently on.

3. Selecting POI is horrible:

Most navigation system will allow you to search the POI from subcategories and will instantly come up with results. If you are typing something that is does not exist or spelled wrong, it will not let you to type it in.( Usually the letters are faded out)

However this garmin will allow you to type in or misspell words when searching for a POI and sit there searching forever! It will just sit there with an hour glass waiting and waiting… Very poorly design.

4. There is no way to search for POI in a particular zip code. They make you pick type in the entire city name instead. The zip code is far more accurate and quicker to type in.

5. Plagued with Advertisement. Have Garmen no shame? They fill this navigation with horrible advertisement.

6. The detail on the road is horrible. My Mio navigation system will show both sides of the street with arrows indicating the direction of traffic. The Garmin, a busy 2 way street looks like a single road.

7. Long side to side view but no forward view. It shows a lot of what is on either side. Way out to the right and left(which I find useless) but not any of the road in front of you(which is what you need the most!)

I am going to look at the Mio or maybe a Tomtom and maybe sell this awful system online.

Garmin is like the GM of the GPS world. They are a big company but not design well at all.

TOMTOM is like Porsche and Mio is like a Lexus.

Turned out to be smaller than I expected. I am still interested in getting a GPS and am considering other (and

less expensive) models.
