Customer Rating:      Summary: Love this product Comment: I truly do love this product! I had been advised by several friends to
avoid two other brands, as they were difficult to use. Garmin as a brand
came the most highly reccomended by the most people I had spoken to. So my
only decision was which Garmin to buy. I chose the 650 because of the 4.3 in screen and the fact that I live near the Canadian border, and wanted
maps of Canada as well. I had also decided that I wanted street names
spoken. It was easy and intuitive to use right out of the box. I practiced close to home just to get used to it and then a week later took
it on my first trip. It was wonderful. I highly recommend a Garmin. I
feel spending a bit of time comparing models and deciding what features you may need or want will stand you in good sted. I love the 650 and would reccomend it in a heartbeat.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Love my Garmin Comment: I really enjoy this product and like the fact that I can take it with me in any car and even use it when i'm walking somewhere (has walking feature). I also like the fact that you can stick new maps in it if you're traveling out of the country. A friend of mine took hers to Italy and it was very helpful for her when they she trying to get around.
Customer Rating:      Summary: nuvi 650 Comment: I have owned this GPS for about 3 months now. Its great! Very fast and accurate. My only complaint is that it is a little slow to pick up the satellites upon startup.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Exactly what I wanted Comment: It was tough choosing -- but I opted for the "cheapest" of the 600 series. Realistically, I don't care about Bluetooth, traffic, FM transmitter, carrying case, etc. I just wanted a good, no frills GPS -- and it's great at that job -- big screen, bright, normally very accurate -- and addressed most of the issues that I had with the earlier 320/330 Street Pilot series (which were no slouches). I used the money that I saved (and ocassionally Amazon does have this unit on sale) to buy the bean bag mount -- which is also excellent -- doesn't block view through windshield -- easy to remove from the car, etc. As far as I'm concerned, Garmin couldn't do much better value-wise than the 650 + bean bag mount.
Customer Rating:      Summary: over all i'm pleased with the product Comment: The only reason i haven't rated it a perfect 5, is due to the fact that at times, even when completely still and in plain view of the sky, the GPS unit will take 1-2 full minutes to lock on to the satellite. At times the routes provides make no sense.. and seem unnecessarily long. That may be a problem with all Garmin units, so i can't fault this specific model. I upgraded to the 2009 Maps a couple days after buying it. I wasn't even aware they had come out with anything beyond the 08 maps. But that's my fault for not keeping myself updated. so all in all, i will stick with 4/5 stars. Only because i wouldn't call it perfect.
