I think I would prefer the Garmin nuvi 300 unit to say street names raher than just turn in so many yards/feet etc.
Not a fan of window sucker for unit would prefer to set up on dashboard but do realise some cars cannot get them in that position.
I have mine on the dash using the garmin "beanbag" unit.

Cost of map updates for Garmin nuvi 300 are very high - makes it a poor long term prospect if roads in your area change regularly. (read more)

The Garmin Nuvi 300 is neat, tidy and simple to use. It'll generally get you there just as long as you use a little bit of common sense.
I would recommend turning the back light timing down to minimum (15secs) if using without the in car power supply as the battery doesn't last that long. The back light still comes on automatically at junctions etc. Even on minimum.
I would have given it an 8, possibly 9, if it weren't for the extortionate cost of the map updates.

Had very easy to use navigation and search options. Also good re-evaluating time.
I would recommend this to most people that want to buy 1 for first time.

The Garmin Nuvi 300 is portable enough to use as a pedestrian as well as in your car. It's a great all rounder and in my opinion is better than my previous sat nav - the Tom Tom One. (read more)

I have had my Garmin 300 for about 4 years now and it has been brilliant. My grandkids bought it for me as I was allways getting lost !
