Ok, I realy wanted to like this unit and in the end I will keep it and get used to it but people should know a few things. The side rear buttons get pressed every time you touch the unit. The touch keyboard is hit or miss as is the voice recognition. I tried asking the unit to find a POI for "coffee" and got crazy responses 50 miles away. I mean they cant program a couple Dunkin Donuts into this thing? Traffic light cams warning is a cool feature as I often drive in DC and NYC and have been caught before. The system showed several on screen warning icons but only verbally warned me once. Strange and dangerous if you start to trust the warning. It looks great. Very iPhone like. The screen is very bright I use it in a convertible with no sunlight issues and the screen is vivid and even shows variances in greens to depict valleys. The advertising popups some people are complaining about is barely noticable. The dialup BING feature is worthless, but I do like the gas buddy connect. Patience is the key with this GPS as it dials through a bluetooth connection to retrieve the info you seek so be patient as it dials connects downloads and then displays. The mount is one of the main reasons I bought this unit as it is one of the only powered mounts which means no plugging and unplugging, just drop in the cradle and go, love that. I will be doing a custome wired mount so this feature is criticle to me. Here's the big issue. I also ordered the TA105 Car Integration Unit and have been waiting for months for delivery. Only Amazon has it and they just wont send it out. Im starting to think its a myth. Amazon if your listening, I WANT MY TA105 NOW!!!!!!! Last thing not so important but if its offered it should work. I tried to sync my iPhone for text messenging and it doesnt work. I called MOTO and they told me to have Apple "change my profile". Apple said my phone needed to be "unlocked", I told them my phone was unlocke ie, jailbroken and they said "oh, well, sorry". So in the end it doesnt work. Would have been a cool feature to have my texts read to me over the car audio. My punishment for not having a MOTO phone I guess.Get more detail about Motorola Motonav TN765T 5.1-Inch Widescreen Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator with Lifetime Traffic.
