- Garmin GPS 760
- Well I`ve wanted a GPS for an upcoming Alaska trip. I bought the Garmin because they been in the GPS business for quiet some time and from recommendations. Well after registering it on line witch seems to be the norm for anything you buy, pretty much there way of getting your personal information. Garmin registration process could sure use some tec. help. The problem I'm having is I'm only getting one bar on the satellite reception, and then within about a minute I lose that. Now I'm living about 15 miles from Sacramento CA. (Pretty dam flat.) I think the final straw was when I went to there web sight went to help section about the most round about way to get from A to B witch turned out be no help at all. (Not surprised) I did do an e-mail to the support an estimated 3 day wait. Well I think the bottom line is with anything electronic especially computer based always turns into hours on the internet or the phone to tec. Support, most cases both. One would think in this high tec. world you would just plug it in and be done. Even a low tec. toaster works like that. Well for me I'm going to return my Fathers days gift, buy a $5 dollar map no batteries required a nice Tommy Bahamas shirt no tec support just button and go.
Myself I'm just tired of buying stuff that just comes with hours of frustration and I certainly don't need some ladies irritating voice to help me get lost. - 2008-06-21, 0 of 20 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Awesome Product
- Garmin has a hit. We use the Nuvi 760 to go everywhere. Not sure what you want for dinner...put in the type of food..let's say American.. and it gives you all American-type food near you. Places you'd forgot about suddenly appear. Opens up so many possibiities and makes your road navigation so easy. Miss the turn, Nuvi says "recalculating" and gives you the next best route. It's truly amazing and worth every dime!

- Nuvi 760 is fab!
- Very easy to use. It's compact but has a big screen. I'm using lake maps with it playing MP3 files. I use the Bluetooth hands-free calling and I love it all.

- works great
- Have enjoyed using, however, it is disturbing to buy a product in 2008 loaded with a 2006 map that already needs to be updated. The update was in the store before our unit arrived.

- You will be happy with the nuvi 760
- My wife and I purchased this system from Amazon, and we are very pleased with it. The graphics are great, as is the functionality of the unit. I am very happy with the routing/directions that we seem to be consistently receiving from it, as this was a concern from other reviews I stumbled across. The traffic avoidance feature seems to work quite well, as this unit came with the traffic receiver and free 90 day trial. The only thing that does seem to be consistent with some of the reviews that I have read is that the FM transmitter does seem to be a bit weak.
There are times when it will come in clear as a bell through my stereo, but other times it struggles to find a station that works well. This has not been that big of a deal with me, as I am so very pleased with all other functions of the unit. If it were stolen, I would order one from Amazon again without a second thought. - 2008-06-18, 2 of 2 people found this review helpful, Rated:
