Price range: £166.37
What is it: Slimline, touch-sensitive, in-car satellite-navigation device
What we think: A simple sat-nav that covers the navigational basics with confidence

Tags: garmin, maps, gps, stations
We like:
Big, colourful screen; good search and points of interest; clear voice
We don't like:
Weak GPS; no traffic info; can't update software
CNET UK judgement:
An entry-level navigator that benefits from a superb screen, comprehensive European mapping and excellent search functions. Only exclusively urban motorists should worry about the fussy GPS reception. The cheaper nuvi 200W is also available with maps of just UK and Ireland
