This review is from: Garmin nuvi 255 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Lifetime Map UpdatesWe ordered this unit because it is listed as having lifetime map updates. It does not. One came with no authorization code or card, so we contacted amazon who directed us to garmin. Garmin does not bundle its products (it says) and sent us back to amazon. Amazon promptly sent out another gps, again, having the label saying it included lifetime maps. Nothing in the box but the gps and its accessories.It's a great gps, but there's no reason to pay $40 extra for nothing....
This review is from: Garmin nuvi 255 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Lifetime Map UpdatesSeriously, I think this is the best garmin nuvi product for the buck. What I really appreciate about this model over the previous Garmin model I had (it was a newer version than this one) are these:1) Preview of upcoming turn on upper left hand corner2) Speed limit sign display3) Gives the phone number to the POIs.4) Cheap5) Lifetime map update....
This review is from: Garmin nuvi 255 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator with Lifetime Map UpdatesGiven the standalone price of a lifetime map update card, this package is a steal. It reads the street names, as advertised, but the text-to-speach voice is not quite as gentle and pleasant as the normal voices. The only thing that makes this unit less than perfect is that the keyboard layout, due to the narrow screen, is in alphabetical instead of QWERTY layout. But I suppose they needed to keep the onscreen keys large enough for the average or fat finger-tips :)...
