I have owned other GPS units and this one is by far the easiest to use. It has a very large screen and the interface is really easy to use. I now use it to load audiobooks and music files and the FM interface is great. I have used this for a short time and I traveled through small towns and rural areas and this has been one of the best tools I have had! I would recommend this to anyone who needs an easy to use GPS and one that can be easily updated.
 Overall good product, but still far from perfect November 25, 2008

I've had my 760 for a couple of months now and overall I'm happy with it. I like that it will give me traffic information, as well as restaurants, gas stations, etc. It has some features that are available that I don't really use such as bluetooth, mp3 player and it also allows you to get the voice to play thru your car speakers via an unused FM station frequency.
My biggest gripe with it is the routing. Even though I know my way around Houston pretty well, I use my GPS to get me around heavy traffic to and from work. There are times where it tries to send me on very odd routes or it will frequently tell me to exit off the main freeway to an access road and back up to the freeway for no apparent reason. I have changed the settings from fastest to shortest in the navigation options but that doesn't help.
I am about to go on a long road trip from Houston to Orlando and I think it will come in real handy but when it comes to city driving, I don't put a whole lot of faith in it, unfortunately.
One of the things I'm a little confused about, also is the difference (if there IS one) between the software that is installed on the device vs. City Navigator North America which would cost me about $70. If anybody knows if this is worth the expense, I'd certainly appreciate the feedback.

Well having had / worked another GPS for a few years this has been a pure pleasure.Very easy to read, its bright in the daytime, auto-dims at night and is very intuitive.Between the written,voice,and visual directions, anyone of which will get you where your going, you can't go wrong.
I use mine everyday in work to weave my way through all the one-way back streets of downtown Boston,its Great,I love it,and would recommend the nuvi 760 to anyone of my friends or family.And that's just the navigation part.I've only scratched the surface.I'm just now getting into some of the other features /functions, but they appear to be the same easy to navigate and find info.experience that I've had so far.Enjoy
Sincerely
Ron from Boston.

Works very well. But remember that a GPS should be used as a supplement for driving directions...not as your sole basis for directions. Sometimes a person's driving experience and knowledge of road conditions and detours is far superior to that of this unit or any GPS device. The response time of the 760 is pretty fast. And the blue tooth feature is very useful. I bought my first 760 back in June for myself, and now a second unit as a gift.
