Trouble Maker Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Me and my sister are going to get my parents a navigation unit for Christmas in that price range. She has the Tom Tom One 130 and wants to get them that. I did some research and was thinking about suggesting the 130s that adds text-to-speech for $200. A coworker also bought a Navigon for his now fiance last Christmas and they really like it. I remembered reading an article about the 2200T. $200 and lifetime traffic, lane assist, text-to-spech, 'real' road signs. Seems like a deal? It also better have one of the updated GPS chips that are more sensitive. I would hope no one is still using the old chips that can take forever to get a lock on their location. Anyone have anything to say about any of these units, or any other ones they would suggest in that price range. We've got $10 in BB rewards right now too... so that would be a slight plus if it's there. TIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87GT Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I bought the lowest end Tom Tom that does the text to speech option at best buy. It was $200 and came with $10 gift card to best buy. It seemed like a good enough one for the price. My wife is going to love it when she opens it on Christmas.

BIGGU Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 i worked some time with them and it seems that everyone loved the navigon, you get alot more for your money. only thing i will say for any GPS regardless of the model. make sure if you have any issues with them just push the reset button (usually need a paperclip to push them) and they will be fine. i cannot tell you how many times people would come in and say their GPS doesn't work right and we would just reset them and send them on their way. persoannly i have a Magellan dont remember the model and i like it alot, (retail was close to 400) i got it on clearance so the deal wasn't bad seems anyone that is in the knowlage of the GPS usally says get a Magellan, Garmin, and some say tom tom but they supposedly are not up to date as most.
