I drive approximately 45K miles per year as a salesman in the North East and have been considering purchasing a navigation system for a while now.

I tried linking my laptop to a hand-held receiver and using Streets 2002 to navigate to only find that there were as many hassles as there were advantages. The biggest annoyance was glare.

About two weeks ago I was traveling in Queens with a coworker who was using the 2610. I was always a bit apprehensive to these systems but once I saw it in action I had to have one. I was amazed at how crystal clear the display was with the sun glaring on the screen. I could see it perfectly, even wearing sunglasses. I’m also very impressed with how the unit navigates through the convoluted roads of New England.

The interface is extremely easy to use. I have not even opened the manual yet.

Furthermore, today I brought the 2620 along while traveling in another coworker’s car. He’s now hooked and is ordering one as I write this review.

A big advantage for me is that the unit is not permanently mounted in the vehicle. On occasion, I drive a rental car so all I have to do is slap this bad-boy on the dash and away I go. The beanbag mounts works like a charm.

Of course, this advantage provides a disadvantage… not focused on the actual product, but on the idea of having a dash-mounted system. You have to remember to remove the unit from the dash on a sunny day or it can cause damage (even though there is a built in heat sensor that will not allow it to operate when too hot). Another issue to be aware of is that the unit is a theft liability. I have to remember to tuck it away while not in the vehicle.
