 7200 T January 7, 2009
K. Telenga (Bismarck, Nd)
This is our first GPS unit and it worked great right out of the box. There are trade-offs no matter what unit you by, this has everything I need. Yes, you do have hold the off button for 8 seconds and it takes about 40 sheets of paper to download the manual at 4 pages per sheet,but there are alot of features for the money.

So far, I have only taken the Navigon 7200T on one long trip - 350 miles from Illinois to Michigan and the same distance for the return. The weather, road conditions, and visibility were so bad that the Navigon may have been a life saver. I especially liked the "Reality View" feature, that displays realistic road signs and lane layouts at the major road transitions. Its voice is loud and clear, and its spoken instructions are accurate. Also, the map seems very accurate - the car's icon is always on the road (not displaced from it), even for minor roads and residential streets.
There is a nice provision for adding waypoints to a route, which lets you pick a route, instead of having to use one that the navigator calculates. Routes can be saved and recalled, so you can set one up any time, and recall it when you take the trip.
Here are a few things that could be improved:
1. A few times, there were long delays when there was no response to pressed buttons on the screen. If that happens because it is busy, there should be a "busy" indicator on the screen. Otherwise, it seems like it has locked up or gone haywire.
2. The menu system is confusing. For example, on the map screen, there is an "Options" button and a back-arrow icon. Each takes you to a different menu screen, and those screens have different ways of getting back to the map screen. It would be better if pressing the Options button displayed options, and pressing the back arrow returned to the previous screen (if any) or to the map.
3. Black lettering, for street names on the map, would give them more contrast and make them easier to read.
4. The free traffic updates are probably good if you can get them before a trip. On my trip, I think they were only received while driving through Chicago, where it kept saying something like "There is a new notice that affects your route". The problem is that you must press an icon on the screen to display the notices, and then read them. But reading them while driving is dangerous, so it would probably be better if the notices could be spoken.
Great price for a lot of features January 6, 2009

This is a very good product for it's price. It has the same features as some of the $500 + dollar GPS's on the market. The fact that it offers free live traffic updates should be enough to help swade even the tighest of pockets. It is easy enough to use so that even the least tech savy person can use it and with a little time spent playing with this unit you can learn it's more advanced features in only a short time.

It's a nice GPS, but for me, the screen is a little small. I moved it up to the upper part of my windshield to get it closer, but it still seems small. However, I used to have a Lowrance iway500 which was substantially larger, so I got spoiled. Love the free traffic feature which works very well. Also love the 3d buildings and the real life looking street signs. I wish the GPS would go straight to the map mode when starting up, as opposed to having to hit 2 or 3 buttons to get there. Would also be nice if it had a larger range of voices. Overall, quite happy, and nice to have something different than a tom tom or garmin.
Love the Navigon January 6, 2009

I purchased the Navigon 7200T to take on a long family vacation for the Winter Break. It is great. I originally purchased the Garman, but the display looked like a cheap video game and the display options were limited. I had been a Magellan Roadmate lover (I bought my 700 four years ago), but it became slow in picking up the satellites and the map updates were $100 each.
The Navigon 7200T is great. Easy to use, with great features (uploading addresses from MS Outlook is my favorite feature).
I would recommend it to a friend.
