Customer Review: My TomTom 140-S Works!
I've had the 140-S for about a month now. Until now I've just played around with it to and from work, just learning how it operates. Acouple weeks ago I had a delivery to a customer in a new housing development about 50 miles away. He was located out in the country on a new street but the TomTom took me straight to his door and then back to the office! That evening after work I drove to visit my son in Marietta/ Atlanta, Ga using the TomTom. I've been there a couple times but have had trouble finding his house both times. He lives about 25 miles off the interstate and Marietta/Atlanta can be a headache to navigate especially at night. What do you know? It worked again! Found his house in the dark! The lane assist really came in handy whenever on the Atlanta outer belt. It let me know in plenty of time whether to bear left or right before an off or on ramp. Those graphics were pretty cool. The overspeed warning was also nice. The unit was plenty loud even with the diesel engine noise. If there was a drawback it was the fact that the sun's glare off my dash made the screen difficult to see at times but it was never completely washed out. If I used it on a daily basis I would invest in one of those aftermarket sunshades. I'm a satisfied customer.
Customer Review: Tom Tom 140S
I tried two different units. The first one developed a hard looping problem that did not let the unit finish programming the route. I discovered when the second one started doing the same thing it would occur if you tried to set a route/address and you were not on a road that the unit recognizes. My driveway is ¼ mile long and runs off of a main road. If I entered an address while on my driveway it would start the looping issue until you approached the main road. My Garmin units do not have any problems in that regard. The second unit would freeze up then reboot after I started entering what Tom Tom calls itinerary / waypoints to program a route with stops that you choose yourself. This is a great feature that was one of the reasons I wanted the 140S. I really wanted to keep the second unit and downloaded all the updates etc from Tom Tom's web site; however, it still had the problem. This was after a new application and map was installed. That process took a lot of time even with a fast connection. Tom Tom's tech folks are nice but many lack the knowledge to resolve issues. Also beware that the internal memory will not allow you to install new maps that cover the same areas as originally installed. If the unit had worked I would have loved to keep it. For now I am using my wife's Garmin 205 nivi and it works without a hitch, however, it does not have the ability to do routing / itinerary like the Tom Tom does. You need to spend a lot more money to get that feature in a Garmin GPS. As usual Amazon handled the returns with no problems.

Customer Review: Magellan Maestro 4250 GPS Navigator Refurbished
I had to return the first one to Megellan for repair, they required me to ship UPS or Fed-Ex with bubble wrap and insure it for 200.00, they returned it back to me floating in a box because the unit was NOT in its bubble wrap, it was under the unit. However after the headache the new unit performs as it should. Why counldn't they get it right the first time. My recommendation, buy this unit NEW.
Customer Review: It was lost
Now I know why this refurbished Magellan Maestro 4250 unit was returned the first time. It gets lost. It got us across town on the first real use but became disoriented nearing the target address. Finally it had us stop in front of a house over 1/2 mile from our destination and it announced we had arrived. I like my magellan gps units for hiking but back to Nuvi for the vehicles. So far, the 30 day return program seems to be easy and working fine. I am comfortable in ordering a replacement unit from Amazon.

Customer Review: Ready to pay extra for Map Updates
I bought this Costco and have used it fairly across USA and Canada. Though the product is fine there are some quirks that everyone should know about - [1] Wall Charger is not included. Unit takes around 3 hours in the car to be charged completely. [2] Updates need a full battery. Quite difficult if you dont have an AC Charger. [3] Map updates cost $79.99. [4] Non-existent Magellan customer service. [5] Slow GPS acquisition. [6] No MP3 support. This will be my last Magellan product. Period. I dont think I will ever pay to update a closed dedicated piece of hardware. A good day-to-day example would be Microsoft charging you $$$$$ to send OS updates.
Customer Review: ok, but not great.
If you want a GPS that gets you from point A to point B then this does that. But if you want a GPS that gets you from point A to point B without any issues then I would look elsewhere. It sometimes has issues where it seems to not know where it is. A few times when leaving our house it was convinced we were in a completely different state and it didn't update to our actual location until half an hour later. And it doesn't always give the best directions. A few times we have asked it directions to a place we know very well and asked for quickest route and it gave us the longest and most complex route possible. I just really expected more from it. Most times it will get you to your destination, but I find myself printing online directions as a backup, just in case. I wish we had purchased a different GPS.

It can also be used when walking, bicycling or motorcycling.
Customer Review: so so...
This little thing is handy, and really saved me a couple of time when I got off the freeway. The problem is when I search for an address and it isn't in the list. I can browse to the location on the map but can't find it on a search. That's annoying. I would like new maps but so far there has been no response from the email address provided. That's pretty much it.
Customer Review: Alaska?
I, too, was impressed by the price of this product. While I wasn't blessed with an $89 tag, $129 was far better than the $300+ the other big boys were asking. Not being at all familiar with the fancies of the more expensive models, I was thrilled for something simple. The product claims to have Alaska loaded onto the CD, and the sales guy at Office Depot assured me it was fairly simple to get it onto the little disk that inserts, but not so! It keeps telling me that there is not enough space. I've taken out everything but the english folder, and the two US maps, and even then, no room. I see now that I have to buy a far larger digital storage device and that $129 price tag is gonna cost me a bit. Let's hope that works! I also found it frustrating that there is no wall plug to charge it with, and that I can't find a way to change my "home" to my Texas address. It apparently thinks my world starts on Canal Street in New York. At any rate, it's not a bad deal for the money, but be aware that the more you pay, the more likely you are to get it ALL in one box.

Customer Review: Works, but...
Very stable. But on the first hot day, I got in the car to find the plastic disc seperated from the pad. Investigation showed that there are 4 small screws that secure the disc to the mount, which had all pulled out. I reatteched the disc with some liquid nails glue, and now it is holding up nicely.
Customer Review: Meh
At least in my Silverado I'd need to mount the hook or the unit will slowly slide off the dash. I just really don't care to put an adhesive hook permanently on my dash. the base is a little too rigid. If it was a bit heavier and more bean bag like, I think it would slide less. It's ok for what it is, just not great. Quality if fine.

GARMIN 010-00361-00 Foretrex 201 GPS Receiver

The Foretrex 201 is a wearable Personal Navigator, perfect for outdoor and marine enthusiasts who desire hands-free GPS navigation in a lightweight, affordable package. At a mere 2.75 ounces, this waterproof wonder is lighter than most watches, and its wrist-top mount frees up hands for outdoor activities and sports an ergonomic wristband. The 201 model comes with a recharging unit so you never have to stock up on batteries for all your daily adventures, but consider the Foretrex 101 that runs on 2 AAA batteries if you're wandering away from the power outlet for a while.

With a user-friendly interface, the rugged Foretrex 201 simplifies navigation, making it ideal for the backcountry or water. Its six dedicated buttons (GoTo, Page, Enter/Mark, Up, Down and Power) make it easy to operate. It offers the most essential navigation data -- enhanced GPS accuracy, extensive storage for waypoints, and reversible routes and tracks -- on an easy-to-read display. Don't worry about packing extra batteries, because the Foretrex 201 runs on an internal lithium battery for 15 hours (typical use). Simply recharge and go.

The Foretrex 201 also comes equipped with special features sure to please mariners and hikers alike. It includes a unique application for sailing and paragliding racers that allows them to configure the start sequence of a race. The countdown is displayed in a large-number format that audibly alerts the user at each phase of the start sequence. With the help of Garmin's exclusive TracBack® technology, hikers can mark a campsite, go trekking all day, and follow the electronic "breadcrumb trail" back to camp in time for dinner.

The WAAS difference

  • 100 meters: Accuracy of the original GPS system, which was subject to accuracy degradation under the government-imposed Selective Availability (SA) program.
  • 15 meters: Typical GPS position accuracy without SA.
  • 3-5 meters: Typical differential GPS (DGPS) position accuracy.
  • Less than 3 meters: Typical WAAS position accuracy.
WAAS is a system of satellites and ground stations that provide GPS signal corrections, giving you even better position accuracy. How much better? Try an average of up to five times better. A WAAS-capable receiver can give you a position accuracy of better than three meters 95 percent of the time. And you don't have to purchase additional receiving equipment or pay service fees to utilize WAAS.

How it Works
WAAS consists of approximately 25 ground reference stations positioned across the United States that monitor GPS satellite data. Two master stations, located on either coast, collect data from the reference stations and create a GPS correction message. This correction accounts for GPS satellite orbit and clock drift plus signal delays caused by the atmosphere and ionosphere. The corrected differential message is then broadcast through one of two geostationary satellites, or satellites with a fixed position over the equator. The information is compatible with the basic GPS signal structure, which means any WAAS-enabled GPS receiver can read the signal.

Who benefits from WAAS?
Currently, WAAS satellite coverage is only available in North America. There are no ground reference stations in South America, so even though GPS users there can receive WAAS, the signal has not been corrected and thus would not improve the accuracy of their unit. For some users in the U.S., the position of the satellites over the equator makes it difficult to receive the signals when trees or mountains obstruct the view of the horizon. WAAS signal reception is ideal for open land and marine applications. WAAS provides extended coverage both inland and offshore compared to the land-based DGPS (differential GPS) system. Another benefit of WAAS is that it does not require additional receiving equipment, while DGPS does.


Customer Review: Excellent basic GPS if you don't need maps
This has been a solid GPS receiver for general situational awareness and logging trackpoints. After several years of pretty heavy use while hiking, walking, mountain biking, commute biking, and the occasional trip up in a model airplane, the receiver still works fine and has decent battery life. The only problem I've had with it is that sometimes the display will get corrupted on a button push and the system will require a reboot - I honestly can't tell if it's a software or hardware problem, but I've never had any trouble working around it. Even with the extension strap it was too bulky to wear on my wrist, I typically leave it attached to the top of my backpack or put it on my handlebars. Modern GPS receivers have slightly better acquisition and sensitivity, but for the kinds of things that I use this one for I have not been bothered. I handle the lack of a user-replaceable battery by adapting the charger connection to accept a standard 5V USB plug for charging; I carry a 5V-regulated USB-interface power source and can re-charge and power on the go if necessary. A GPS alone is never a sufficient plan to keep yourself found, but I've been impressed by how much you can do with just a tracklog and waypoints. I would consider carrying just a datalogger with better battery life and such but the basic interface here is just helpful enough to make it worthwhile.
Customer Review: Not what I thought it was!
The item turned out to be not what I thought it was. In the item description Not once was it put forth as a trail and hiking GPS. I bought it under the premise that we could use it for our car. The one good thing that did happen with this transaction was that I received it within 5 days, which was extremely good service.

Magellan 980915 TrafficKit for RoadMate 2200T and Crossover GPS

The Magellan 980915 TrafficKit for RoadMate 2200T and Crossover GPS sends real-time traffic information and other reports directly to your Magellan RoadMate 2200T. This unit is required in order for your Magellan RoadMate 2200T to take advantage of its real-time traffic capability, and allows you to more easily avoid accidents, road construction, slow-downs, severe weather, road closures and more. Once the 980915 TrafficKit has been installed, your RoadMate 2200T will not only be able to provide you with on-screen icons that will easily identify the location of relevant traffic incidents, but will be able to automatically re-route you around most major road delays. User's should note that real-time traffic information is a subscription service that involves a monthly fee. The 980915 system comes with an advanced cradle, and includes a three-month trial traffic subscription.
Customer Review: MAGELLAN TRAFFICKIT FOR ROADMATE & CROSSOVER GPS
This did not work, I activated the traffic and went on I95 and got stuck in a 5 mile traffic backup. The radio stations all had the accident but the Traffickit was saying NO INCIDENTS ON THE ROUTE!!
Customer Review: Works in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
I have been using this now for a little over a month. My only complaint may be based more on the base unit rather than the traffic kit. It does not seem to look very far ahead, so by the time it shows a traffic tie-up, I am often already in it. The suggested detours have been very handy at times. It has come up with some imaginative ways around downtown Dallas that I never would have considered before. The reason I went with this combo is that many other GPSs required compatible cell phones and none of them seemed to work with mine. While this one does require a subscription, at least I don't have to base my choice of cell phones on whether or not it will work with my GPS.

Customer Review: Great GPS
This is a great GPS unit and very accurate. I have only used it a couple of times, but am still glad I purchased it, as it will come in handy when traveling out of town.
Customer Review: Great unit...otherwise
I start by stating that the unit i am reviewing is the REFURBISHED version. While it shouldn't have been a big issue, there are significant factors to be addressed The one big reason i nicked the unit points is due to the map being outdated. You may think that you are saving money but as of early 2009, tom tom does not issue free one-time updates with refurb units, contrary to what i thought. An upgrade will run you in excess of 40 bucks, and without it, I kept missing turns and destinations that are centuries old. Second, not so big issue is bluetooth. While not a big deal to many I purposefully chose this unit over some garmins and magellans due to this. It is supposed to sync with your compatible phone and read your messges, in addition to basic call features. I was able to get it to sync only 1 in 20 times. The rest of the time, kept dropping the connection. Very annoying while driving. Lastly,was the volume. I had to have it on max to hear clearly, otherwise, you will have to turn off all the music to be able to disern whats being said. While the issues above were pretty significant, I'd like to think that it was because it was a refurb. When the features worked, they were wonderful. The voice clarity when making that single bluetooth-call was amazing, with no echoing. The text to speech functionality was great,highly recommended feature when shopping for a new unit. I also did not have an issue with the mapping software that some claim is inferior to garmins.

Garmin GPS 60CSx Handheld GPS Navigator

The venerable Garmin 60CS just got a whole lot better. The 7.5-ounce GPSMap 60CSx now features an insanely accurate, high-sensitivity GPS receiver by SiRF that tracks your position even in tree cover and canyons. Plus, you get a bright, sunlight-readable color TFT display and an included a 64 MB microSD card for storage of optional map detail. Add all that to the 60CSx's integrated barometric altimeter and electronic compass, and you've got a unit that is ready to take you anywhere on land or sea.



The 60CSx is a refreshing upgrade of the 60CS, and features a removable microSD card for detailed mapping memory. View larger.


The device features the powerful SiRF GPS navigation chip for supreme accuracy in all conditions. You also get an electronic compass and a barometric altimeter.


You also get a large color TFT display and turn-by-turn routing capability.
You can use the 60CSx's memory card slot with preprogrammed microSD cards from Garmin (sold separately) that provide topographic maps, city streets, and nautical charts. In fact, the unit is compatible with most Garmin MapSource products including BlueChart, City Navigator, U.S. Topo 24K, and U.S. Topo and Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots. The unit comes preloaded with an Americas autoroute basemap that provides automatic routing capabilities including highways, exits, and tide data. There's also a preloaded marine point database. You can even get turn-by-turn directions when you're driving, and an integrated trip computer provides odometer, stopped time, moving average, overall average, total time, max speed, and more.

The 60CSx's 2.6-inch, 256-color TFT color display is designed to present mapping and trip information clearly and accurately in any lighting conditions. Plus, the case is lightweight, rugged, and water resistant to IEC 60529 IPX7 standards (can be submerged in one meter of water for 30 minutes). When using two AA alkaline batteries, you'll get up to 20 hours of battery life from the unit. The unit's barometric altimeter system features automatic pressure trend recording while providing current elevation, ascent/descent rate, minimum/maximum elevation, total ascent and descent, and average and maximum ascent and descent rate. Meanwhile, the electronic compass allows you to get accurate headings while standing still.

Another key feature of the 60CSx is the 10,000 point automatic track log; 20 saved tracks (500 points each) let you retrace your path in both directions. There's also a large-numbers option for easy viewing, as well as a dual-position display mode.

The 60CSx's trip computer provides odometer, stopped time, moving average, overall average, total time, max speed, and more. Meanwhile, a fast processor allows the 60CSx to provide quick auto-routing, turn-by-turn directions, and audio alerts when you use the optional MapSource software, which can be stored on the unit's included 64 MB microSD card. Downloading information is quick with the USB or serial port interfaces. Using the dedicated serial port, the 60Cx can share navigation instructions with repeaters, plotters, and autopilots. The four-position rocker pad and dedicated high-use buttons make navigating through the unit's features easy, even when your fingers are cold or wet.

Finally, the GPSMap 60CSx is packed with some extra fun features. An integrated outdoor calendar provides ideal hunting and fishing times, plus moon rise/set/location information. There is a dedicated geocaching mode for those of you into the hot GPS community treasure hunt game. Finally, there are indoor/outdoor GPS games to help you and your friends enjoy the outdoors.

If you like the features of the 60CSx, but don't need an electronic compass and a barometric altimeter, check out the Garmin 60Cx.

Customer Review: Did Not Receive It
The rating does not truly reflect the product's quality but I couldn't give it a higher than one star because I never received the unit... because Amazon never sent my order!
Customer Review: Great Improvement
I guess there is nothing else I can say but, "great improvement". I upgraded from a Garmin eTrex Legend after beating it up for about 3 years - by the way, withough a glitch. The on/off button can be a bit trying on the finger (a little too close to the antenna and hard to push down), but so far that is about the only thing I can complain about. I love that the buttons are now on the front of the receiver. I have not had a chance to really give it a workout, but I hope the quad helix antenna and sirf star chip live up to their claims.

Customer Review: Cool gadget, can't beat the Amazon price.
This Tomtom isn't an especially advanced GPS as compared to many, but it works just as it's supposed to and costs just over refurbished. I've always had great luck with refurbished electronics and this is no exception. Tomtom also has a lot of free online user map updates and other features that allow you to customize your Tomtom. The only addition that I would really like to see made available to us would be a woman's voice with a southern accent - "Tun lef jus up ahead, suga." The yank voices are difficult for us southerners to understand sometimes. We have used our new Tomtom on a couple of trips to unfamiliar cities and it has performed flawlessly. The speech technology is a vast improvement over the previous model in that now when we are in downtown areas where the streets are close together we know exactly where to turn rather than having to sometimes guess. This product would get a five-star rating, instead of four, if the Tomtom map update online service was either free or much less expensive. By my thinking (kind of like with XM radio) I would be a much more loyal customer to Tomtom in the long run if they would provide their service at a better price point. My Tomtom came to me right out of the box six quarters behind in map updates and now the company requires that I spend about 60 bucks a year to stay updated. We don't use it enough to warrant spending sixty dollars a year, but the only alternative is for it to become increasingly obsolete. All of their additional pay services seem, at least to me, to also be somewhat overpriced. As to the product itself, we love it and would definitely buy the same product again and would buy refurbished from Amazon.
Customer Review: TOM TOM XL-S
Great product. I'm more than satisfied with this GPS system. Even tho it's referbished i't looks brand new. Works great and with the bigger screen it's easy on the eyes.

Customer Review: Good but small
I bought this screen protector for my Nuvi 370, unfortunately the screen protector is smaller than the Nuvi screen so it looks bad.
Customer Review: New GPS User
The screen covers are useless since a small strip of paper remains on them in order to remove the cover. The strip covers part of the screen obstructing the view, thereby making the covers pointless because you now cannot see all of the screen.
