Product Rating: 4 star(s) Great GPS wish; it had customizable fields

, Jul. 31, 2008
Comments:
This is my fourth Garmin GPS. I have owned the GPS V, Quest 2, Nuvi 670 and my second Nuvi 770 (first one was defective). I feel that Garmin makes fine products, but they have also dumb down the units in order to allow ease of use. My old GPS V allowed me to configure fields as I choose to get the most information possible and to use the device as I needed not like someone who had no clue on how to use a gps unit. The new devices are more powerful and accurate, yet they don't allow for custom fields on the main screen. It should be no problem allowing users to choose which type of information they would like to display. These units cost a great deal of money and since everything is software driven there really is no excuse for those of us who want more than just getting to point "B" from point "A" not to be able to configure them ourselves. It is a great unit that everyone reviewer has been gushing about especially the multi-routing feature. It's not new my first two units had it and

QuickTake:

Pros: Multi-routing, great satelite connection, wide screen
Cons: No custom fields control, no ability to lock scale view, no speed indication on main screen.

The home screen of Garmin's nuvi 770 is refreshingly simple. And intuitive too
