I have had the 880 for 2 years now and thought i would write a review to steer people away from this product line in general. I would imagine the whole Nuvi line is based on the same specs (cpu, internals) so this would apply to the whole line of Nuvi products.
Overall i rate this product a 1 star and would not recomend it to anyone. I have loved Garmin products in the past especially the street pilot series which i still use over the nuvi series. This Nuvi line is of poor quality. My 880 has gone back to garmin on 2 occasions and still has quite a few problems.
My newest issue is that it decides to stop working and lock up on long trips. This happens without notice, so picture yourself driving on a long highway and not noticing the unit has stopped working. Meanwhile your turn off has long passed. This goes easily unnoticed as you only glance at the unit every once in a while when driving.
All in all, i would avoid the Garmin line and try another brand. These Nuvi units are GARBAGE. I am not sure what is good out there, but will research Magellan and some others if i were you.
