On the plus side, the Garmin build quality is probably 2-3X better than Curtis. It also has the advance routing features found on the Nuvi 750/755 (handle predefined/scenic routes and also multiple destinations simulatneously).Ī Garmin 250 doesn't come remotely close for features or performance. Also iGO has the "lane assist" and "reality view" features found on the high end Nuvi 755. The Curtis has a more powerful CPU and can render maps with 3D features including landmarks like the major buildings, CNE and it's windmill, mountains, etc. ![]() The main performance difference between the $47 Curtis/iGO8 and the Nuvi 750 (besides the bigger 4.3" screen) is that SIRFIII chipset GPS antenna in the Nuvi 750 appears to be more sensitive than the Curtis. Hacked iGO8 software gives the $47 Curtis the same features/routing engine performance as the Nuvi 750 and also includes many of the new features on the Nuvi 755 units (although I think the 755 has much faster performance). Once the $47 Curtis is modified, it will blow a Garmin 250 out of the water. ![]() H00ch wrote: ↑Good price for that unit, but this is the best GPS deal ever, in case you haven't come across it yet. ![]()
