nuvi 855 GPS Navigator & Personal Travel Assistant w/ Speech Recognition
(GRNUVI855)
Pros: Simple Controls, Lane assist, Large Screen
Cons: Short Battery Life
Other Comments: I wish my girlfriend would use the voice activation since that seems like such a cool feature, but the standard features are obviously so easy to use she doesn't care. The lane assist option is very helpful to know which lane you need to be in for exits, etc.
She loves this GPS and it was a great gift. The battery life isn't great but it stays plugged in most of the time in the car anyway.
Yes, I recommend this product

nuvi 855 GPS Navigator & Personal Travel Assistant w/ Speech Recognition
(GRNUVI855)
Pros: Reliable Performance, Large Screen, Easy To Set Up, Compact, Easy Menus, Simple Controls, Easy To Read, Acquires Satellites Quickly
Cons: Voice recog too sensitive
Other Comments: I love this Garmin! It is much better than my last one. I have not had any problems with it freezing up, like others have reported. It even tells me the posted speed limit. It sent me to a dead end once when I was out of town, but I was told that they had changed the roads. The speech recognition is a little touchy. It doesn't always understand me if there is background noise. That is the only thing that hasn't worked out great for me, but it is not a big deal. I use it daily to find new routes through town.

nuvi 855 GPS Navigator & Personal Travel Assistant w/ Speech Recognition
(GRNUVI855)
Pros: Large Screen, Reliable Performance, Easy To Read, Acquires Satellites Quickly, Audiblecom compatibility, Easy To Set Up, LOVE voice recognition, Compact
Cons: Slight route inaccuracies
Other Comments: The voice recognition is superb. I can find routes, restaurants, attractions, addressess...everything with just voice commands. Even with some background noise, the thing is very accurate. With the ability to program in custom voices, I'm looking forward to having my kids record many of the GPS phrases and use their voices instead of the computer voices.
