Pros: Great features for the price, easy to use, lots of POIs, fast satellite acquisition

Cons: Screen is a bit small but try the 200W

Summary: I bought my Garmin Nuvi 200 after comparing it with similar priced units with similar functions. The only one that came close to the Garmin Nuvi 200 was the Garmin Sreet Pilot C320/30 and the Tom Tom One. But after reading some reviews on it I went with the Garmin and I couldn't be happier! It has the latest maps and great signal strength! I also went with the 7-9 day Free Shipping... I GOT MINE IN 4 DAYS!

Pros: Easy to use.

Cons: Loses reception sometimes.

Summary: The Garmin Nuvi 200 is a great value for those looking for basic navigation. Since moving to a new city, I have learned my way around the city very fast. After owning the Garmin Nuvi 200, I don't see how I ever made it without one!

Pros: Bright, clear display; quick, accurate route calibration; solid voice prompts

Cons: Lacks text-to-speech and traffic support

Summary: After a year and a half of putting off this purchase decision, I finally broke down and bought a Nuvi 200 for my wife. My wife works as our local Humane Officer and, as such, is constantly scurrying about the county on calls to come rescue a wide variety of abused and neglected critters. She ABSOLUTELY LOVES this device! No more time lost searching for (often unreliable) internet directions / maps. The display on the Nuvi 200 is bright and clear, to the point that neither of us would recommend spending the additional money to "upgrade" to the widescreen version. Voice prompts are loud enough to be heard over the din of city traffic, radio deejays, and children in the backseat. The route calibration is quick and reliable; it works well both within the city and in rural areas. Though the Nuvi will occasionally drop you off 2-3 doors away from your target destination, it is acceptably accurate and always get you close enough to the intended destination that the driver can complete the voyage without any undue confusion. The points-of-interest function is so convenient that is has spawned a new family game where we all climb into the car and let the Garmin decide where we will dine that evening. Though the unit does not support text-to-speech (it will not pronounce street names, instead instructing you to "turn left in 50 ft.") and traffic functions, these are features that do not exist on any GPS device in this price range. Though this is our family's first GPS unit, we are so thoroughly impressed that Garmin has earned a pair of customer's for life.

Pros: Very good alert messages in time while driving. All necessary features for a driver on the road available in this model.

Cons: Does not have other facilities like connection to the cell phone, MP3 features etc. but these are not essential for a driver.

Summary: I like the product very much as it does help me while I drive to a new place and is able to recalculate if I ignore the prompts and drive in wrong route. A reliable friend on the road while driving. I will recommend to all drivers who just need someone to help them find their way to any new destination in North America.
