- Excellent Product
This product is a life-saver! We have used it on vacation, for house hunting, all kinds of stuff. In fact, the first time we took it out on a test drive, we encountered a gentleman needing medical attention out in the middle of rural SW Georgia and were able to find him a hospital even though we were unfamiliar with the area! It's amazing!

I like the fact that she (the nüvi: Since it has a female voice, we call it "she," her," etc., and she seems to have a little bit of a personality.) gives voice-prompts just at the right moment, right along with text-directions, appealing to both audio and visual learners/thinkers. I like the fact that she's pretty knowledgable about most areas. Rule of thumb: She knows her way around Atlanta and major cities and most rural areas, but her flaws become visible when it comes to finding recent developments. This is an issue that needs to be addressed by whomever makes updates the maps, not the nüvi, herself, since she can only give info based on the maps preloaded and updated on her system. I've even downloaded the 2009 City Navigator North America NT, and she is still unfamiliar with newer subdivisions and developments and some older places off some beaten paths. Sometimes she surprises you by finding out-of-the-way places you wouldn't expect her to find. However, none of this severely detracts from the overall usefulness and fun provided by the nüvi 260. You can even download extras from the Garmin website: vehicle icons, map updates, points of interest, etc., which help customize and personalize the device. I highly recommend this product to anyone. In fact, I have recommended it to just about everyone in my family, even the technologically illiterate people, because it has a very simple, intuitive interface (when you need to find or use a feature on the device, just touch whatever button or follow whatever series of buttons that seems to make the most sense, because that's most likely what you're supposed to do anyway), and the setup and features are things you probably would have designed into the device yourself. Go out and buy one!

- Garmin got me there
The Garmin 260 nuvi is a great tool to the person who does a lot of driving and doesn't have time to look at a map, while driving. The maps are either getting smaller or my eyes are getting worse, but the Nuvi got us to our destinations and it was well worth the price. It has enough bells and whistles to make the novice excited and the old perennial traveler satisfied.

- Get's you where you want to go
This GPS device delivers exactly what it says (figuratively and literally). It's a step up from the 200 model and well worth the extra money to get the street names rather than just the "turn" directions. In fact, you don't even need to look at the screen, just follow the voice directions which are very good. Also, for the same reason, don't bother with the wide screen version unless you have a special need and I can't imagine what that might be. The 260 is light, compact, and very easy to use. It directed me through some of the smallest, obscure neighborhood streets with no glitch. Unless you need some advanced features, this is an excellent basic GPS.

The 260 is a slim version of the 500series Street pilot. Good Dependable GPS system.

- A disappointment
I was considerably disappointed in the performance of this product. I spent quite a bit of time evaluating systems on line, but I guess that will never be as good as seeing the item for yourself. My first test of the product was to have it guide me to a place I commonly travel and found that while the map guide was generally accurate the spoken commands were not and had I followed the spoken commands it would have taken me considerably off track. It completely missed and intersection that required bearing left to reach the destination. I have found on numerous occassions where the spoken and labelled street or highway name does not match either the posted name or the common name. In some cases I know that the street and highways were never designated by the name given by the Garmin. That leaves me with little confidence in letting this device lead me to somewhere I have not been.
