* REVIEW FOR NAV740 ...
ALL IN ALL A REALLY NICE GPS. A LITTLE SLOW FINDING SATELLITES BUT LOCKS IN VERY NICE. SEEMS TO BE VERY SENSITIVE TO THE HEAT FROM THE SUN BUT IT HAS TO SET IN THE WINDSHIELD AREA. FOUND 2 ROADS IN MY COUNTY THAT ARE WRONG AND SADLY ONE OF THEM IS THE ONE THAT RUNS IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE. THIS CAN BE BLAMED ON LIVING WITHIN .25 MILES OF THE COUNTY LINE. AS I SAID IT IS A NICE UNIT AND I LIKE IT ENOUGH THAT WE BOUGHT OUR DAUGHTER A NAV730.

Great GPS - Super Buy
I have had this GPS for about a month now. It is an excellent device. I agree with all of the positive comments by those who have reviewed it. I would like to add several more.
Because I needed some help (not the NAV740's fault) I emailed the manufacturer. In both cases I received a fast (in several hours), complete, easy to understand answer. It was obvious the technician knew the product.
The unit comes with two DVDs which contain a very complete manual in several sections and complete software and maps recovery with installation directions - a nice piece of insurance. You can also find updated maps with installation directions at no charge on the internet. The link is http://v7support.com/gps/index_files/USA_Nav740.htm
Yes, the device may not always map a trip as you would have - there are too many possibilities. However, if you don't like the way you are being directed, just adjust your drive and the unit will recalculate based on your change.
So far I am delighted with the NAV740. I couldn't believe the low price. It is a great buy.

* Complex ...
Beutiful Screen but complex to use. Programming new locations is NOT fast. GPS is accurate.

Don't throw away the map
I bought this because it can also play movies which is cool when you have 200 or more miles til the next off ramp. Comes with AC,DC and window mount. The units map impressed me because it had My Parents street and Map Quest on the internet did not. It helped us getting out of vegas when I missed the exit. It is spastic at times and has to reboot now and again. So keep your paper Map for study prior the trip. I have the maps and movies on separate cards have tried up to 8gb SDhc card which failed after a week (but it was a bargain brand) I think 4GB SD is the safest I will buy from now on. We traveled from Michigan to Phoenix, Vegas and back. We had it playing through the stereo for the movies which rocked. I converted several AVI movies for the 4G card. Still happy and it has been dropped at least twice and still functioning. I own a Mac but have access to PCs. If you have a decent card reader you can transfer map info and unlock the device without a PC. I haven't tinkered again with it since I mainly use it as media player and Gps second.

* No Mac or Linux support ...
This may work well for those on the dark side, but what the documentation doesn't tell you, unless you dig for it, is that the DVD and CD that come with it are only compatible with Windows computers. It used to be that Windows people were proud of the products they support, but if a manufacturer won't even tell the consumer that their products are OS limited, well, you get the picture. Stay away from this.
