I own this GPS. It does tell you what street you are turning onto, if you read the instructions and set it right. It is a bit bulky but for my non-tech savvy wife it is great. Youcan do almost everything withour the stylus expect type in the address. It is a bit dated on the streets but with all of the construction going on what model isn’t. It is great for the price and if you don’t mind the size.

This GPS was made in 2007 but does not allow many street numbers present for many years. It misidentifies roads and sometimes routes you incorrectly. It tells you to take nonexistent exits and turns. It has frequent software errors that require restarts only possible by cutting all power. Update 1/3/09 Audiovox (Jensen) responded to my complaint as follows: There are no map updates available yet and we do not have a precise release date at this time. The best thing to do would be to check the Audiovox web site from time to time for availability and cost.
Audiovox is not responsible for the mapping software. You can report missing map information, incorrect routing and other mapping problems directly to the mapmaker online at:

So they intend to charge for updates if ever available-good to know when considering purchase.

Thumbs down all the way.
I bought this and had to return it within a week. I have used many GPSs Different brands and models and this is the worst.
It was constantly hanging, and I had to reset it everytime. RESET – not just power off-power on.
Lost signals regularly. Once I was driving on a straight tree lined street (about 2 miles) and it kept recalculating the route every 50 yards or so…
Bulky.
Worth no Stars. Do not buy it.

The chip is way outdated and the GPS does not identify the street you are to turn on.
