Comments about Garmin Garmin Nuvi 200 Portable GPS:

Liked the original one so much got another one for my wife and my folks. They are technically challenged and have no problems using the device. There is no set up required. Unpack. Turn on. Type in location. Go. That easy. This device works better than the $1800 device from both Lexus and $2100 device from Mercedez. My co-workers use my portable Garmin in their cars for business clients because it doesn't get confused or lost. Not to mention the detour feature that actually works. Should be the standard for the rest of the industry. If it updated from a Satelite link rather than internet connection it would be the Porsche of navigation.
