Accurate GPS
47 of 49 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Inexpensive, accurate, portable
Cons: battery life
The 3rd Edition is very easy to use and comes charged and ready to go with preloaded maps. Inputting directions is easy and the ONE calculates your route in seconds. The maps are very accurate and it comes with millions of POI's. These are great when driving in unfamiliar areas. The device is very small and mounts easily to the windshield. I would definitely recommend this device to a friend looking for an entry level GPS. ...

Perfect GPS
12 of 14 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: text-to-speech, easy use, aquires sattelite quickly
Cons: battery life
I love this device because it has all of the features you want and none of the crazy ones you don't really need. Of course I'm talking about the text-to-speech. T2S makes navigating in the city much easier so your not always looking at the screen when the device tells you to "turn right" or "turn left." It actually says the name. It is very accurate and comes with the latest maps. The ONE XL-S acquires a satellite quickly and inputing the directions is easy. The gps also has the Map Share and Help me features. I haven't had a chance to use these yet, but after playing around with them they seem simple enough. I would definitely recommend this device to a friend. ...

Cons: mount
I've been using the GO 720 for a while now and have had nothing but positive experiences with it. I've used it on several long road trips and it has worked flawlessly every time. The 720 acquires a signal very fast and after you input your direction it calculates your route in a few seconds. I've found the maps to be up to date and routing to be extremely accurate. It's very convenient that the device has text-to-speech and reads the names of the streets instead of just saying "turn right." This is very handy in the city or on the highway so your not always looking at the screen. The 720 also has a built in FM transmitter which lets you play MP3s through your stereo.... very cool. ...

I'll never get lost again!
1 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Easy to use, up to date maps, text-to-speech, works right out of the box
Cons: nothing to complain about yet!
I've found using the GO 910 very handy. For people living in the city (like myself), this is a "must have." I really like the text-to-speech function on this device. It makes it easy in rush hour and traffic to know where you’re going so you don't have to constantly look at the screen. The device is also very easy to use and works right out of the box. The new 910's also have the latest maps from TeleAtlas, and are more accurate than ever. I haven't had the chance to really use the bluetooth yet, but that's my next adventure. I highly recommend this device to anyone considering getting a GPS. ...
