unhappy 
2007-07-30
I purchased the item for my daughter's birthday because she is starting a job in a new town, and state. IT DOESN'T WORK. It would not download the info from the cd. She called Garmin and they sent her a new cd but now it won't even try to download. I have sent in a protest with my card card and will not be paying it untill the issue is resloved.
good GPS for starter

good enough to find the right place. Very useful if you are a beginner or has bad vision at night.
Basic but cheap 
2007-06-28
Paid one fifty for this, which is as low as you can get for a GPS. Upside is it works well and is pretty accurate as far as directions go, well worth the money for that alone. Downside is it was difficult to figure out how to get the maps from their website on to the unit. After several failed tries I'm still not sure how I finally got the maps on. Also, finding nearby restaurants and points of interest is only marginally helpful because the information is outdated by at least a year or more, and some MAJOR venues aren't listed at all (e.g. Fair Park in Dallas ... the largest park in Dallas and home to the Cotton Bowl and Smirnoff Music Center).

It was slow to load up.
I had to have a friend to load the programs for use
More than a toy 
2007-06-27
The Garmin i2 is my first GPS device. Though I rarely get lost, the price has come down enough to justify its purchase as a toy.
However, I was pleasantly surprised that the i2 is more than a navigator. The i2 dug up many local stores, restaurants, etc. that I was unaware of. Now, I make sure that my i2 is on board before making a non-routine trip.
As for its navigation capabilities, the i2 is not so intelligent as moi. However, that is not saying much (LOL). Seriously, my i2 is quite intelligent. I have recommended it to my family and friends. You might want to look into it, too.
Great Navigator 
2008-06-03
This is the best affordable navigator, this product is a low budget product, system is easy to follow, voice is clear and directions are easy looked at display.
As first GPS is easy to program, Maps are not allways updated but has yellow book data base to find a lot of interesting places as needed.
I used it to travel from DC to Pittsburgh and as a first road trip in USA it was easy and safe, this was my first time in DC and Pensilvania and had any problem driving there, it has a lot of interest places, restaurants, shops, bars.
Best of the best for the price.
Good solid GPS unit. 
2008-03-06
Great GPS unit for travel and confined spaces. This is a solid Garmin product that does as advertised. Routing and directions are clear and precise. Works well on a motorcycle with a small windshield or dashboard. Will not take up much space. About the size of a baseball. Suction cup works really well and can be hard to remove at times. Would give this a 5 if it had a color display. I own the i3 version of this as well and would give it a 5 rating if I had bought it here. This model can be found cheaper and works well if you want basic features. Get rid of the 128 Mb card, get a 1Gb card and load all of North America on it. (The OD green color may put some people off, but it works well with a darker interior or if you use it in a military HMMWV, it feels right at home. On that note, the monochrome grayscale screen is night vision compatible too.) Great little unit to have with you. AA batteries can be found anywhere and the only real downfall is the power cord does not recharge the batteries. The unit does not have a recharging circuit in it.
Royal pain and a waste of money 
2007-12-27
Save yourself a ton of grief and avoid the whole Garmin line. Product support is just sad.(NO joke) Nearly impossible to register and thier site is more into selling upgrades than provding service. The Streetpilot i2/i3 itself is buggy and not at all user friendly but far better than their 800 number. Get Tomtom or buy a map.
Great GPS for the Money 
2007-11-21
This is a great little unit. It is good for entry level in the GPS world. Now that I have a taste of using a GPS I would like one that is a little larger, color display and a touch screen.
This one can be a little slow and cumbersome when entering in an address. If you are an occasional GPS user then this is the unit for you. Very accurate and easy to use. If you use this for work like me (real estate agent) then invest in a larger unit with touchscreen entry.
Still great after one year 
2007-11-03
I've had this unit about a year now and it still works great. This has the highest price/performance of any unit I researched. The black and white display is very visible in all lighting conditions.
I just upgraded the maps to the latest (v9) from Garmin. It was $75.00 over the web. They ship the CD to you free and then when you try to install it, they let you figure out that you need to get a new unlock code. Still, $75 is cheaper than buying it retail.
The complete North America v9 maps won't fit on a 1GB microSAN disk, so get the 2GB version. I ended up buying the microSAN (SDSDQ-2048-A10M) from Amazon because it was cheaper with super saver shipping.
I tried some other mounting ideas, but just buy the friction mounting kit from Garmin. It works great and is easy to use: just flop it on your dashboard.
