Advantages: small, accurate

Disadvantages: old

This was my first step in the GPS world, and I was very happy with my purchase. Now in early 2009 it is outdated, but really was great for the time.

The unit is very compact, which makes it easy to keep in your car and store anywhere. It includes a suction cup mount that is very strong, and can be stuck just about anywhere. Most people prefer to put it on the windshield, but I put mine on my dashboard just fine. The unit runs on 2 "AA" batteries, but comes with an adapter for the car.The speaker is loud so you can hear the voice directions even if the windows are open or the music is loud.

The unit comes with a cd full of maps, and you upload the states and cities you need to the unit. This process may take a few mintues, depending on how many states you actually need. You can purchase new cds with updated maps, and I belive that one might be given to you for your first free upgrade, but I'm not exactly sure.

Overall, this is a very basic GPS. It has the points of interest, voice navigation, and memory for favorites. I was happy with this, and was no longer lost after using it.
