I bought this unit

I bought this unit and I like some of the new features. I'm really not happy that Garmin took away features that I used to have on my nuvi 1690 such as Garmin lock. I had my nuvi 1690 stolen recently and that's a real peace of mind to know whoever took it now has a boat anchor.

Pretty good price for a new

Pretty good price for a new unit that was until recently, one of Garmin's top of the line models.

Got one too

Interface takes some getting used to...

odd pricing

It's strange that if you select the versions without the bluetooth or lifetime maps features the price goes up. $140 as advertised, w/o bluetooth is $150, w/o maps is $192!

Should I upgrade?

How does it compare to my 765T?

That figures

Most of the time when I buy something in a short time I can count on the price dropping.
