Garmin Nuvi 260W Review by Phyllis Kendall (Hazelwood, MO USA) 2010-03-07 This GPS met all my expectations. My research for a portable GPS led me to the Garmin nuvi 260W. It is super easy to set-up and use. I was prepared for a long wait to acquire a satellite but it only took 5 min. I was happy to see it worked great on finding streets on Air Force bases. I rely on the voice feature for my directions which meant I... Read more Garmin Nuvi 260W reviews... |

| Review by ElektroDragon (Bothell, WA) 2010-03-08 I bought this unit last year, and had to re-sell it very soon thereafter. It suffers from some terrible problems: 1) The speaker volume is so low, you can't hear it over highway noise! 2) The screen has really bad viewing angles. If you aren't looking at head on, you're out of luck. 3) The touch screen is fi... Read more Garmin nüvi 765/765T reviews | ||

| Review by retired (denver) 2010-02-26 I asked for the nearest post office ... it didn't find it. I asked for an address and it popped up the West address and wouldn't let me enter the East address I needed. We didn't need the MP3 or the Bluetooth features. Then when we learned the model was discontinued and that the navigation tools would be discontinued in 2012, it didn't seem like... Read more Garmin nüvi 780 reviews | ||
