Sure, the hardware isn't as deluxe as the more expensive nuvi 7x5 series, but if you're on a budget and want solid basic navigation with text-to-speech, traffic, a widescreen, and Bluetooth, it's hard to beat the nuvi 265WT. quote

If you want an affordable 4.3-inch GPS device with the friendly Garmin navigation experience, it's hard to miss with the Nuvi 265WT. It's an "oldie but goodie," and it remains one of my favorites.

As the only wide-screen model in the nuvi 2x5T series, the 265WT is sure to be popular. It is best suited for (a) those in an area served by NAVTEQ traffic and /or (b) anyone wanting a Bluetooth GPS at a reasonable price.

the lead time to locate an address upon entry is slow. after boot up , it takes a long while to catch the satelite. I ended up using my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate as my main GPS.

Great value and features for the price. I recently paid $200 at Costco with a $20 discount coupon. Free lifetime traffic works great, but check the Garmin website links to ensure you get traffic broadcasts in your geographic location. It will tell you if there is a traffic problem on your...

Great inexpensive GPS with traffic updates. The traffic updates aren't as accurate as I would like, but the simplicity and accuracy of the maps are very good. Probably the easiest GPS I have ever used.
