Full featured, awaiting s/w bug fixes, req. polishing [Update: 02/20/2008] - I've installed the firmwire update, things look better, in terms of routing, spoken voice and POI search. Not all issues resolved, but nevertheless better.
Extensively used it over the last 2 months and I find it to be reliable. Nevertheless, do take a peek as to what's coming up than blindly following the routes dictated.
I own a 2100T (not BF sale@Staples). First off, 2100 vs. 2100T is *T* includes the traffic subscription.
Here are my th...

Better than Most Got one at Staples for $149 which was $100 off normal retail (which is always high) but still about a realistic $50 off what everybody else was charging. Bought a 3 year extended warranty via Square Trade for another $23 (including "klutz" insurance for accidents).
I had read reviews where people complained about slow satellite tracking times. I had a Garmin handheld that couldn't find a signal if I lived on a satellite so this definitely couldn't be any worse. Guess what? Whipped...

GOOD DEAL FOR THE PRICE I GOT THIS PRODUCT FROM OFFICE DEPOT FOR $149 PLUS FREE ITEMS...
The GPS works perfectly even the text to speech feature plus the 3D map. The only thing I dont like with this is youhave to wait for almost 10mins to locate the GPS signal. ALso the suction cup does not stick that well on the windshield. BUT aveall, I will rate this 4STAR.
SO FAR SO GOOD

Good, Basic Unit I bought this unit on Black Friday at Staples. The selling point for me (as opposed to mio on sale for the same price at other stores) was the lifetime traffic info included. Living in a major market, this is a valuable feature.
The unit is esthetically pleasing, and a really nice size. It fits in a small purse or coat pocket for easy portability. It's not the most intuitive setup right out of the box, but you can get it up and working for the basics immediately. There is no manua...

Value packed but a bit disappointing... I recently returned a new Magellan Maestro 3140 GPS unit that did not have traffic data as I decided that I needed the traffic feature. I was going to buy another Magellan product but on a whim I went to Staples early on Black Friday and I managed to buy a Navigon 2100T for $99. For a device with text to speech and lifetime traffic this is a great price.
I have been testing this Navigon device for the past few days to see if I want to keep it or if I will get rid of it and get the Mag...

good unit overall, great for the price I have used the garmin 360, love it. But I couldn't stomach a $350 price tag, especially when you pay for an mp3 player and picture viewer...no thank you. But i really wanted a text to speech unit. Here enters the navigon. It has what I want and I don't have to pay for all the frivolity. The routing options are a little odd; fastest, shortest, optimal, and scenic. Why make fastest AND optimal? I found the learning curve on this unit was slower than the garmin. But this unit is a keeper, it ...

All you ask for! At a Grreat Price!! I got this from Staples recently and love it. Bought it for $100 on Thanksgiving sale and the price is unbeatable.
Ease of Use: Absolutely amazing. I plugged it in and it was ready to go as soon as it was out of box. The menus are simple, have autocomplete option and are quick.
GPS Function: I have used it extensively for a week and I am very pleased with its ability to show correct directions. The best feature is that it highlights which lanes to stay in when on the highwa...

So far so good! I received my Navigon 2100 two days ago from Staples for $179.00. So far it is working well. It said it would take up to 15 minutes to get the initial GPS lock. It took less than a minute (but I'm sure that can vary by location). The text-to-speech road name announcement works like a charm as well, and I don't see how you could possibly miss a turn because it gives you warning upfront and then tells you again when it is time to turn. It allows you to choose your 3 primary POI categories and...

overall review for Navigon 2100 GPS I just presently bought this item through Staples, as well, when it was $179. I actually bought 2 of them. This is such an ingenious product. I like the usability of the lane information, although, like C. Ralls said, it definately does not replace the thoughts of the driver into thinking in terms of driving laws. As C. Ralls put it "You can't really expect a GPS to replace thinking and paying close attention to the road, I suppose." (Thanks C. Ralls).
Again, as C. Ralls stated, t...

Terrible Customer service I have had my product since black Friday and my realtime traffic still does not work. I have called Customer support 4 times each time a talked to a nice person who said a supervisor would call me back with in 48 business hours. It's 1 month later and I have had no calls back. I live in Los Angeles where the traffic signal should be strong but my unit is yet to pick up a signal. I do not recommend this unit to anyone and I highly do not recommend purchaseing the real time traffic unless you ...
