Length:: 7:16 MinsI really wanted to like this product, but it didn't stand up to side by side comparison with my 2 year old Nuvi 750 (see my review on the nuvi here http://www.amazon.com/review/R3BLFWG7PQZ883/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm )Here are some my gripes about the Motonav:-mine arrived used or at least covered with oily fingerprints, but it was via Amazon Vine so I didn't sweat it.-usb cable is difficult to plug into motonav, as a result the delicate internal pin is already bent in mine-updating the software took aver two hours and motonav spent quite a bit of those two hours locked in and endless cycle of error messages and powering on and off. I had to manually reset motonav several times just to continue downloading the updates. As an aside, it appears to be using a Windows based operating system.-can not zoom out to view large map of routes. Full route only viewable via micromap which does not show street names and is not zoomable. Being a highly visual person, this is important to me. I don't care to see the street by street written route. I want to see the map and be able to quickly navigate to parts of the route to zoom in on the details. I drive all over South FLorida and I need to see where the GPS is taking me before I go there (some areas are just not safe).-motonav has voice command options, but I found them to be mostly ineffective, even when speaking slowly and loudly-there is only one voice option (snobby female) that works with all functions of the motonav. If you switch to a male voice, you end up with different voices for different features, some male and some female. The nuvi has a few dozen voices to choose from and the voice you choose works with every function. -route retrieval was sluggish/slower on the new motonav as compared to my two yr old garmin nuvi. -it is fairly difficult to hold this device without pushing buttons mounted on the sides and top.-screen is not easy to see when hit with direct sunlight as compared to my garmin nuvi. I was not able to find any settings to increase contrast on the motonav-only comes with one map update which must be completed within 6 months of activation. Free lifetime maps should be standard by now.Things I did like about the Motonav!-fewer screen touches to get to most functions and searches as compared to Nuvi-more detail in the maps (parking lots mapped out in addition to streets)-sleek appearance-syncs with blutooth compatible phone to give you access to your address book (if you want to initiate calls via your gps)AND uses your phone to give you live traffic-automatically routes around traffic problems if you so chooseFor me, the good points don't compensate for the not so good ones. Check out my video to see the Nuvi and Motonav in action side by side. Let me know if this was helpful, please vote. :-)
