Customers Reviews  2010-02-03 Garmin speaker for StreetPilot 2620 The speaker part of this item is fine. The slide-on electrical connector is poorly engineered. After a short time, the plastic "wings" on the connector bend slightly, making one of the contacts not mate properly. This electrical connector is far to complicated and delicate for anything but occosional use. Shame, Garmin. |  2010-01-01 Cord is not working well. I had bought this chord in October and have used it about 6 times now. Am having problems with the chord in that I have to jiggle the chord for my unit to come on. Not exactly what I expect from the product after having paid this much. |  2009-11-20 Longer than the original cord The original cord on my Street Pilot 2640 began to give me problems after about 2 yrs. When I would go over a bump the Street Pilot would reset due to a break where the cord attached to the connector at the back of the GPS receiver. The new cord may develop the same problem (it appears to be identical to the original except that it is a couple of feet longer) but it solves the problem for now. |  2009-08-31 design and build quality flaws The fact that every person looking at this Garmin speaker adapter is here to buy a replacement for their broken part is surely testament to an inherent design flaw. The fact that the part costs so much just adds insult to injury imho. I had tried to tape the tip back on for a while to delay purchasing a new one, but eventually that failed. Trying to get all the bits back together was a challenge.
If you do manage to find all the pieces when yours breaks (and it will break) , I think the reviewer who recommended going to radio shack or an auto parts store and buying a "y" adaptor is on to a great Macgyver fix. I'll be trying this out myself rather than purchasing a new one. |  2009-08-19 Works like they said it would! The seller was right, it was exactly what I needed. I don't think I should have needed this replacement if Garmin did the right thing. I like my Garmin but this was a week link(cord) in the product. This seller was A++++!

Garmin nuvi 260 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator Garmin's nüvi 260 3.5-inch Portable GPS Navigator unites eye-catching cost and thin profile with directions in real street names. The device contains a pocket-sized navigator with a magnificent display, detailed maps that make search by names (by the way it contains more than 6 million destinations such as restaurants, hospitals and so on).
The Navigator also includes text-to-speech feature that makes it automatically call out street names. It is the first dream of the driver – to keep your eyes on the road while your navigator tells you the route. The device design is brilliant. High-sensitivity receiver, USB interface and other useful things are put into the modern stylish device.. It also includes rechargeable lithium-ion battery that works for 5 hours.
The main Garmin nuve 260 advantages for its owner are its interface and easiness in use. To know your route you need to touch the color screen and other work is made by nuvi. The interface is neither complicated. In fact Garmin is proud of their interface due to its simplicity and style at the same time. It has a so caleed smart interface. With sub-screens and simple controls one has no problems to enter or search for destinations and get data about his trip.
So many can’t stop boasting of their perfect device others tell about its flaws:
- It has no physical volume control.
- It has no USB cable
- It has no carrying case
- It has no multiple-routing capability and only one "via" limiting point
- It can’t input miles around detour
Features:
• High-Sensitivity GPS Receiver For Improved Performance & Reception
• 3.5-Inch Color Display, 320 X 240 Pixels
• Turn-By-Turn Directions With Spoken Street Names
• Sleek, Ultra-Slim Design
• Easy Touch-Screen Interface
