Broke down in less than six months.
This unit is very easy to use, but after less than six months, it shut down. The unit will not power up anymore. I contacted customer support, and they gave me some tips on how to power it back up, it still did not work. I have re-contacted customer support and am waiting to hear what to do with it. It's a shame that it is not working. I was actually enjoying using it.

Garmin nuvi 760
Most Garmin auto/mobile GPS units come highly recommended by reviewers. This unit for the most part satisfies. It has been accurate and trouble free in finding and giving directions, not so with other features. Now for the downside. Either the paid renewable subscription type or free traffic updates feature available on many GPS units is a joke. For the most part they are inaccurate and not current and do not give you real time road construction alerts. The next item is the cost of map updates after the first year. Garmin asks for $100.00 I believe. This to me is a little steep considering that the actual cost to Garmin and other providers is most likely a fraction of that. Ah yes marketing. A way to sell more new new units. I will be investigating manufacturers that offer real time traffic reports for a fixed monthly to yearly charge for what I hope is a superior service for not much more than a map update. Since they down sized from the Street Pilot line, the sound stinks. All for looks. The microphone reception in Bluetooth mode is also terrible. Most times you cannot make out what the Bluetooth user is saying.

Great GPS and More!
This was my first GPS unit, and I am quite please. Great POI, maps, and very easy to use. Bought it with the '09 maps and have since upgraded to the '10 maps.
You can pair the 760 with your cell phone via Bluetooth for hands free talking. I believe Garmin has discontinued this model, but if you can find it, buy it.
The only con is that it does not come with a case.

4 Star +
Would have been 5 stars but the newer model has Lane Assist :) Works past my expectation.
Worked on move from NC to NV. Worked in rural MidWest and crowded Dallas & LA. Worked in & over the mountains of NV and southern Cali. Even worked at 41,000ft @ 495mph on Delta. I read the safety pamplet on the back of my seat, GPS' are not prohibited items :) Ever since those commercial pilots got "distracted" somebody needs to make sure they are going the right way. ;)

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
