I just purchaced the garmin nuvi 1450t and it works great out of the box. It picked up the satelite quickly. The entire display is updated with much smoother lines and richer colors, and easy to see in the dark or at full sun light. The cigarette lighter power cord isn't the greatest, its too big and it sticks out about 6 to 7 inches it shoud have a smaller knob, this was the biggest dissapointment for me. But so far the unit works great even with out updating it.Easy unit to work with out of the box, just by playing with the settings and changing the unit too you prefferences.I especially liked the ease of which I could scan for restaurants, gas, and any other point of interst closest to my current location. If you are looking for an easy to use GPS with street names spoken this is the one for you.

This Garmin has been an outstanding purchase. It was of excellent value per purchase price and I would highly recommend the unit. It locks on the satellites very quickly and is very accurate. I could not have been happier with the purchase. I would not have a problem purchasing this way again. Amazon.com is definitely the way to purchase items. High quality all around, from products to service.

I have had a Streetpilot III GPS for 8 years now. Since the last map update version available for this unit was 2008 only, I decided to purchase a new GPS unit. I read all comments and reviews on just about every unit from this site, Yahoo & Google websites, and ConsumerReports magazine. The more I read about pros and cons on any unit, the more I got confused. Garmin Nuvi 1450T was the only unit without a negative review just because there was only 1 review at the time of purchase. After all, I am pretty happy with this unit even though there are a couple of functions that I miss from my old unit.
