Got my replacement (Garmin 255WT) like it!
Few issues though! already rung to enquire as why no EU maps came with it?- turns out few where loaded on unit itself and that was it...(just empty SD slot and no card)
well I got my SD card(4GB), did official update of maps- gooden! 8/10 from me
As nice, basic as unit is, few features are lacking as IE more predictive/suggestive search display(in case of incorrect address or else), some more customization would be handy, but such unit for a first time user- awesome!. annoyingly, when I was driving on a road- Looket G8 with iGO Primo was if anything quicker, than Garmin? despite perception..
Still happy with unit, I find it few times better, than Original MyGuide, uncluttered, but is not as what I was intending to do with it (apart from GPS navigation)- running different stuff on it.
The great think about MyGuide is easy conversion to run both iGO and TT. 8/10 for both after modding them. my last verdict on overall 6/10 as for unit out from a box for good maps, but weak hardware and silly soft on it.
Kinda safe bet to get Garmin or TT, whilst MyGuide is failure in its hardware and disaster soft ways, I got more respect towards Looket with original Soft and with iGO. 7/10 and 9/10 respectively
Completely different all , will take little longer to pick favorite.
