Amazon.com Product Description----May 7, 2008
Garmin's nuevi 255 improves upon its 200-series predecessors by adding top-of-the-line features such as FM traffic updates or MSN Direct content to an entry-level line. But Garmin is also introducing some significant improvements with this new series, like a predictive technology that provides faster satellite lock, a redesigned screen with more information, terrain maps, and an exciting new photo navigation feature. The 255 adds complete maps for North America and Text-to-Speech, so you get turn by turn spoken directions with the real names of streets (e.g. "turn left in 50 feet at Nebraska Way", rather than merely "turn left in 50 feet").br pimg style="width: 300px; height: 254px;" alt="" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/gps/garmin/detail-pages/nuvi-2x5.jpg" align="right"The nuevi 2x5 models all sport the slim design that Garmin introduced with the 200-series last year, so they all fit comfortably in your pocket or purse, and a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that makes them convenient for navigation by car or foot.All of the models include useful travel tools like a JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more. br /p h2Key Features/Benefits for all 2x5 Series Navigatorsbr /h2 ul lispan style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"New/spanspan style="font-weight: bold;" /span-- HotFix (Long Term Ephemeris Prediction) span style="font-weight: bold;"finds satellites faster/span (Learn more)/li lispan style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"New/spanspan style="font-weight: bold;" /span-- Digital Elevation Model (DEM) Basemap shows span style="font-weight: bold;"3D shaded terrain/span features (Learn more)br /li lispan style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"New/spanspan style="font-weight: bold;" /span-- Faster 333 Mhz processor offers faster, span style="font-weight: bold;"smoother map drawing/span and vehicle icon motion through turns br /li lispan style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"New/spanspan style="font-weight: bold;" /span-- span style="font-weight: bold;"Redesigned user interface/span offers more information (Learn more)/li lispan style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"New/spanspan style="font-weight: bold;" /span-- span style="font-weight: bold;"Photo Navigation/span lets you upload geo-coded photos from a phone, geo-coding camera or photo site and navigate to them.

Until the device gets a "lock" on three satellites, it can't effectively navigate, so decreasing the time it takes for your device to get "satellite lock" is always a goal of GPS manufacturers. With Garmin's new HotFix technology, your Garmin GPS remembers the position of all satellites it is tracking when you turn it off, and calculates their movements in order to predict where they should be the next time you turn it on. This gives the device an idea of where it should look for satellites, and dramatically decreases the time it takes for your Garmin to get its position and start navigating. HotFix can predict satellite positions for up to 3 days after the device was last turned off.br br Using Garmin's unique Web site #151; Garmin Connect Photos #151; users can choose from millions of geo-located photos provided by Google's Panoramio photo sharing community and download them to the nuevi for a richer navigation experience using pictures as a guide.br /td /tr /tbody /table hr class="bucketDivider" noshade="true" size="1" h3a name="New_--_Navigate_by_Photo_"bbspan style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"New /span--/b/bspan style="font-weight: bold;" Navigate by Photobr /span/h3 table style="text-align: left; width: 100%;" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" tbody tr td colspan="1" rowspan="1" style="vertical-align: top;"img style="width: 504px; height: 538px;" alt="" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/gps/garmin/detail-pages/photos_preview.jpg"br /td td colspan="2" rowspan="1" style="vertical-align: top;"Using Garmin's unique Web site #151; Garmin Connect Photos #151; users can choose from millions of geo-located photos provided by Google's Panoramio photo sharing community and download them to the nuevi for a richer navigation experience using pictures as a guide.br ul liChoose from Panoramio's collection of photos from around the world./li liEasy to use interface displays photos on Google Maps./li liSearch for photos by location name or map area boundary./li liTransfer photos directly from Garmin Connect to device with the Garmin Communicator./li liView photos in Google Earth./li liSupports Internet Explorer 6+, Firefox 2+, Safari 3+ on Windows and Mac./li /ul br table style="text-align: left; width: 100%;" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" tbody tr td style="vertical-align: top; text-align: center;"img style="width: 150px; height: 113px;" alt="" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/gps/garmin/detail-pages/photo-nav-2-150.jpg"/td td style="vertical-align: top; text-align: center;"img src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/gps/garmin/detail-pages/photo-nav-1-150.jpg" alt="" style="width: 150px; height: 113px;"/td /tr /tbody /table br /td /tr /tbody /table hr class="bucketDivider" noshade="true" size="1" h3bspan style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"/span/b/h3 h3a name="New_--_3D_Terrain_Maps_"bbspan style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"New /span--/b/bspan style="font-weight: bold;" 3D Terrain Mapsbr /span/h3 table style="text-align: left; width: 100%;" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" tbody tr td colspan="2" rowspan="1" style="vertical-align: top;"Shaded relief terrain maps show you when to expect hills, mountains, forests and other natural features.

 Wow. Stunned at how great a GPS is. My first. November 12, 2008
P. Stein (Beavercreek, OH)
Purchased 2 weeks ago, and used to drive from Ohio to Boston. 1600 miles RT. My first GPS. I was totally blown away with these fantastic devices. Great voice quality, easy to read graphics. Shows shortest and best routes. Mapquest can't compare. I exited an interstate that didn't have a return ramp. The GPS saved me. Back on in 5 minutes. Can't believe how instantaneous the transmission is. It made one mistake (twice), the entire trip. Told me to turn right, when it should have been left. Repeated the mistake on the same off ramp turn, on the return trip. It instantly recognized the error and gave accurate directions to get to my hotel. It gave me the exact speed limit of each road I was traveling. Instantly recognized changes in the speed limit. I passed on the factory Nav on my new Honda Ridgeline, after several friends told me the Garmins are better. One uses a portable Garmin, even though his new BMW has factory Nav. Incredibly easy to program. Thought they were an extravagance, when you can get a mapquest printout for free. Boy, was I wrong.
Excellent GPS November 9, 2008

This is a great GPS unit for the first-time owner. It is very easy to use!
 Great GPS that's a tiny bit short of awesome November 4, 2008

Invariably, the 200-series will be compared to the super-popular 350, and I can't help but do the same. The 350 was a true pioneer, but I always found myself waiting a half-second for it to get back to me, and overall, the experience was sluggish. br / br /The 255 is plenty fast, and brings the GPS interactive experience to a new level. My purchase was based on Consumer Reports' ratings. br / br /The 200-line is certainly confusing in terms of number increments not matching up to features, but I would strongly recommend the TTS feature, which is only available on the 260/260W/255/255W. Despite the numbering scheme, the 255-line is newer/faster than the 260-line, which is why I chose the 255, though others may have chosen it for the FM/MSN traffic/info features. br / br /Pros: br / br /Size/Build: br /Very small. Smaller than a hockey puck, and completely pocketable. br / br /GUI: br /The interaction with the menu is very fast, and without delay. Searches, map refreshes, etc -- they're all a lot faster and I don't find myself waiting. br / br /Map: br /The 3D GUI updates at what appears to be 3-4fps, which may not sound like much, but compared to 1fps for older models, this is a significant improvement, and is the difference between missing an exit or not. br / br /3D Terrain: br /This is surprisingly useful when going up/down hills, as it gives you an idea of not just a left/right turn, but also the incline. Sudden, steep climbs/downturns (think Laguna Seca) were reasonably well-indicated, which allowed me to slow down a bit more than had I assumed it was a level turn. br / br /Antenna: br /I personally like that the flip-up antenna in the 300-series is gone. It makes it much more usable when holding. br / br /Display: br /The display packs a ton of information, including next turns, speed limits, and all things that were typically a few clicks away. Surprisingly, it does not seem cramped at all. br / br /Routing: br /Routing is very fast -- maybe 1-3 seconds? It's fast enough that I don't need to count, sweat, and worry that I won't get directions before the next intersection. br / br /Re-Routing: br /Most importantly, *re-routing* is fast. If I take an incorrect turn, it will re-route within seconds, and will prompt me with a turn direction half way down the block. In previous models, I would have to slow down or pull over. br / br /Overall: br /Size, build, battery life, screen, volume, TTS, etc... all wonderful. As a standalone GPS, this is quite impressive. br / br /Cons: (this is where it gets knocked down to 4 stars) br / br /Dock: br /The 350's dock housed the power cable, which made it a one-handed motion to get it back in the dock with power. With the 255, you need to plug in the power, then place it in the dock. Not a dealbreaker, but it's too bad they couldn't engineer it like the 350. br / br /No QWERTY: br /It amazes me that even with a touchscreen, Garmin still can't give me a QWERTY keyboard. It's not as if there are physical key limitations... This makes inputting text considerably slower. br / br /Shortage of accessories: br /No USB-A to USB-Mini cable, no AC adapter, no case. Not that *I* need any of those things, but someone who's not a computer geek may not have those things handy. br / br /Average Web Tools/Content, Photo Bookmarking: br /I can see they're trying to beef this up, but as of this writing, the on-line, web tool and photo-based location bookmarker is average, at best. The downloadable content (new vehicle models, and the one custom voice) offers considerably less than the competition (eg: TomTom). br / br /Other: (Not pros or cons, but FYI) br /- no mp3 playback br /- microSD slot, not SD br /- sorry, no feedback on MSN traffic, as it doesn't fit my usage style
Very pleased October 24, 2008
happy travel (MS)
I am very challenged when it comes to directions. The product has been very helpful. There were a few newer places that could not be found. No problems finding a satellite and it located most of my places of interests as well as rerouted me when I missed turns (due to my own mistake).
excellent gps October 24, 2008
L. Phillips (Austin, TX)
I recently had to replace my Streetpilot 2610 and wanted something without some of the new bells and whistles that a lot of the new gps' have. This has all the features I need and not much else. br / br /I especially like being able to download locations from Google Maps and Mapquest.
