can it be used as hand held device
how did you do all that without crashing
shut up and do the tutorial. geez blah blah blah
It is easy to see that the screen is more unresponsive as compared to a cell phone.
ok thanks Jaime I will share
Jamie, what is the little black thingy with a tip that came in a small bag; I suspect its an antenna? what do I do with it? Thanks, Eileen
How do I get “home” or “Beve’s”. I had to keep putting in all the information, say of addresses. Does it not save this?
Mwhahahaha now I know where you live. Too paraphrase Liam Neeson I don’t know who you are but I will find you.
it doesn’t show exact apartment number sometime…..
I will never purchase a garmin product again, I tried 50 plus emails to customer service to get the life time map updates over a 2 year period with no success, I tried again 2 years later, 10 emails and 2 visits to Halfords where purchased, again nothing so I contacted the Evening Telegraph and explained to Halfords that although they were not at fault a photographer from the newspaper would arrive tomorrow as they sold the item and offered lifetime map updates, Halfords replied no photos could be taken, I informed them the photographer will arrive at 2.00pm.
Halfords contacted Garmin and they issued a code number, this gave me the updates but corrupted the whole system and now the item is not working at all.
There is no customer service here so my advice is DO NOT BUY ANY GARMIN PRODUCTS, if you do you will regret it.
Not sure if you have used any of the 6″ or 7″ ones. Just wanted to know if there is a lot of difference in terms of screen size

how did you do all that without crashing
Do you know how to open the lane assist from the 2557？i never see where can open it
Is there a truck mode on this model?
How about voice?
I’m more impressed with my $30 tomtom gps app on my phone…
Much thanks, that was terrific. I’m about ready to pick up a similar model and was hoping to see a complete rundown somewhere. Excellently done!
In some states you can get a ticket for having anything mounted to the windshield so does this GPS come with a dashboard mount?
Can you Jamie or anyone tell me how to put addresses in the Garmin.? Thanks, Eileen
I just purchased a Garmin 2797 Nuvi which is similar to this model. The problem I have had with past Garmins (and with a Tom Tom before) is that the antenna connection to the unit itself seems very fragile. I take care in unplugging it nad taking it down from the dash but in about 2 years the connection gets lose and then the antenna (and of course eventually the power) doesn’t work. Has anyone experienced something like this? The connection seems pretty fragile. Perfectly happy to accept that its me but it seems to me there must be a way of security that connection so that it isn’t compromised after repeated attachment and unattachment…….BB
Nice review I just got my first sat nave today and you have helped me fathom out how it works.
Every time I turn it on, I have to reset all of the settings, like country and language. Why is this? Thanks.
Pretty good …thanks
Also, does it use multitouch? One thing I don’t like about my 50LM is how it uses a resistive touch screen.
this gps does not look very responsive at all… when scrolling thru the cars it don’t scroll worth a crap.
