Beats the nuvi in features with alot less pricetag! Reviewed by MikeS from COLUMBUS OHIO on 11/18/2007 06:53 pm I recently got my 3250 here at just $299.00. Bluetooth works excellent with call quality well above what I expected for the price. The traffic lets you know in advance of accidents, construction, severe weather, etc. Voice directions with street names spoken is easily heard and the unit is stylish, small, and very lightweight. The windshield mount works perfect. the only down side is lack of a thorough manual, not that you need one, because it is easy to figure out all the features on the 3250
