Garmin nüvi 670 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator was purchased because we went on vacation and borrowed a smaller version of Garmin nüvi 670 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator.

It is definitely worth its money. I would recommend this to anyone that travels.

For 11 trips to Europe, I have used a Garmin e-trex connected to my lap top with a RS232 to USB converter, a Y plug in the cigarette lighter to power both the laptop and the e-trex, and Mapsource software on the laptop. A lot of gear, hard on the navigator (laptop on the lap is hot and uncomfortable) but very clear maps and some neat features (like saving tracks easily, making slides out of screen prints to really annotate my trips, etc. Finally decided to upgrade, picked the 670 because the screen size to price ratio was the best I could find, and it had European maps included.
The really good:
Arrived early; booted up right out of the box and found satelites faster than the e-trex, pretty intuitive interface (although I did ... Read More
