Calling all 260 owners

 

I currently have a C530 and I’m looking to upgrade to a 255/ 260. But the 530 isn’t dead yet and it has some features I like very much. So I have a question for the 260 or 255 owners. Does the 260 have the following: Intersections, Cities, browse maps? Are these features easily accessed? Any other comments regarding the 255/260 would be appreciated.

Regards
Tom

I have a 260 and it does have Intersections & Cities. Both are easy to access. My GPSr is in my car right now so I will have to let you know about the rest tomorrow. If there is anything else that you want to know please do not hesitate to ask.

Yes, Cities, Intersections,

Yes, Cities, Intersections, and you can browse anywhere in the map you want. I think the 260 is the best thing going for anyone who doesn't need the gadgets like Bluetooth, MP3, etc.

Thanks for the responses. I agree the 260 seems to be the choice for those of us that don't need the extras

Sorry for the delay.
I will have to agree with Rick. The 260 is the only GPSr that I have owned and it has worked exceptionally well. I have not run into any of the upgrade probs that the higher end models have. It is very easy to work with.

The 260 Is Excellent

I agree with the previous comments. I have a 260W and I am very pleased with it. All of it's features are easy to access and use.

But the 260 will accept

But the 260 will accept wav audio files for use with POIs and will also do Tourguides.

I also own the C330 & C340 and I am really impressed with the Nuvi 260 for a more than basic unit. Has everything I want.
Paid less than $200 (including tax & shipping) at Amazon 3 weeks ago !

Good Luck

N260 new 09 maps

Hey guys, newbie here !
I just need confirmation on new 09 maps functionality in and around Boston downtown. 08 maps guided me couple of times wrong way, maybe 09 maps are better...
I know that there's no signal in the tunnel but I end up on the wrong way being downtown Boston...
Thanks

I live 5 miles north of Boston and if you are downtown and just out of the tunnel, I have found that my 260 get completly LOST. The tall buildings cause a lot of problems. I have the 09 maps. It was the same with the 08 maps. What seems to work, is to stop the route and start over.
