Summary: So Far, A Great Product
Comment: I've only used this twice, but like it already. The maps are easy to read, and the text to voice works nicely. We're about to take several trips, and will rely on it more then. You have a choice of voice inflections, and we chose an Aussie sounding female, which is cool. We also downloaded some custom fonts from the Garmin website, such as a silver convertible for our pointer. The 4 inch screen really makes a difference when viewing, and the automatic adjustment for night lighting is a welcome feature.
The things I don't like about it are: there is no AC adapter included, nor is there a case included, which should be for this price point. Also, if you plan on downloading maps from the Garmin website, make sure you have a few hours (yes, hours!) to spare, as it can take over 2 hours. The included manual is sparse and incomplete, but the complete manual can be downloaded for free at the Garmin website (again, you must download and print to get what really should be included).

Summary: Garmin Nuvi 650
Comment: Although I like the Garmin (when it works), I feel that the software is not up-to-date. With this being a recent purchase I should not have to purchase an update at this time. I would have liked to know the date of the software in this model before my purchase but was unable to find it and just took a chance and purchased it. I returned the first Garmin for out dated software but this one seems to be the same. Overally, good product for the price, and better than other brands in the same price range.

Summary: This is the one you want
Comment: I am extremely pleased with the larger screen. Unit is extremely accurate. I was very impressed with the instant changes the unit makes when you do not make the turn or when you decide to go another way.
I highly recommend this unit to anyone The unit prompts you twice before you need to make a turn well in advance

Summary: Charger died, Garmin support took time to get through, but helped.
Comment: It worked very well for the first 2.5 months. I rely on it to get me places and after 2.5 months, it shut off and would not stay on. The battery was run down and it would not recharge with the 12V cigarette lighter attachment.
It took some time on the customer service line, about 15 minutes. However, they were helpful and are sending out the cable and adapter for the 12V line. Better than having to ship the thing in and wait.

Summary: Garmin Nuvi
Comment: We love our Nuvi! It is very easy to use and a great aid in travelling. We are very glad we opted to get a Nuvi that gives you text-to-speech, telling you the name of the street, when to turn, and in what direction. We used it on recent vacation to find out-of-the-way antique stores, and it quickly and conveniently routed us right to the door every time. If you know the address, Nuvi will get you there, hassle-free.
