Garmin 265 in real world July 29, 2010
Bought this Garmin a month ago mainly on the good reviews it had received and the reasonable price. Took it on a trip to the Bay area, CA. Overall, it performed well. The initial satellite acquisition in a new area takes longer than normal but that's to be expected. Subsequent acquisitions were fast. As far as the routes, except for one hiccup where it kept trying to exit on a non-existent exit on the highway, it performed OK. I noticed though occasionally it went "crazy" going around loops and so forth. Best to re-start the route calculations in those situations. The maps are fairly up to date. The traffic worked OK in one situation but for the most part, it's not the feature I would base my purchase on. For people who rely on reviews, having read dozens of them on various GPS devices, you will not find one with a perfect score. There's no such thing as a perfect GPS at any price with the current state of technology. Even with the "best" one purchased, one should not blindly follow the instructions. Commonsense should be exercised as to where the GPS is sending you. For the money, Garmin 265WT is an adequate unit.
 Love it cant drive without it! July 28, 2010
Best Gps,nice widescreen so that u can view the street details,never looses signal,calls street by name,accurate,good features to find shopping ,gas,food etc nearby.dont forget to install the free update u get with this gps it expires after a month or so.
Overall Satisfied July 27, 2010
Overall I think this is great for the tech challenged, however I really would have liked a REAL manual to be included. I had to ask my friend to find it on-line. Since there isn't a manual provided I'm not really sure all that the device can do...but for getting places it's pretty straight forward. For the price I'm satisfied with what I got.

What a great upgrade from my old Garmin 330, this thing is awesome, handsfree phone use with the bluetooth, and the directions to new places is priceless
 Garmin nvi 265W/265WT 4.3-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator with Traffic July 27, 2010
Not pleased with this GPS at all. I had the Garmin Nuvi 205 before and it worked quite well.
Upgraded to The Garmin Nvi 265W/265WT which speaks the street names. It is very slow responding with directions, does not know which direction you traveling many times, does not know which lane you are in sometimes so tells you to turn the wrong way. I DO NOT recommend
this unit at all. I will call Garmin about but plan on returning this and going back to the Nuvi 205.
