    Frankly, I bought the unit expecting that I would not be totally happy, because I'm picky with electronics. But I'm actually quite pleased and glad I bought it. I started using the unit within minutes of buying it and easily got it going. Suction cup mounting works well, but having to plug the power into the bottom of the unit makes me mount it higher than I'd like. Works well in large city. Optional traffic info worked well; recalculates routes quickly. Built in POI list is good mainly for gas, food, banks, atms - no stores without the optional package. It does all I expected, but more easily and better than I expected. I have found a couple of out-dated intersections and POI's. Sometimes the route chosen is not the fastest or best, but will still get you there.

    A great performer for the money. You load in an address and it takes you there. If for any reason you miss a turn, no problem, you are rerouted to your destination. Don't leave home without Navagon GPS.
