      I had this, it wasn't great. Extremely slow poi and many times I stand next to the store and it still can't find the store where I was. My old broken Mio would spit out the result within 5 microsecond while this takes 5 mins and still didn't spit out the correct result.

      It's great that the hardware can measure voltage current and accurate battery status but as GPS it was the worst I've own and the most expensive too.

      Pretty much all the useful stuff are hidden... including street names display on the map are hidden too. Just some lines representing the road and the arrow that suppose to be you.

      When I was driving in DC, it lost signal a few times which I didn't expect from Garmin hearing how everyone said they never lost signal.

      The traffic thing, it's not very accurate. Sometimes the traffic is crawling but at least it's moving, yet the GPS route inside road to stuck behind all the redlight making the trip longer.
