5 out of 5 stars Great cable with great reception and features   August 29, 2008

Well, I've read many reviews on this cable and the TTN cable that came with my nuvi 760. I have coverage for both in my area and also in the mountainous areas we drive into. I have had good luck with both. Neither did alert me of the pending construction in the mountain town however.

I used this cable in NYC and as soon as I planned my route, it detected traffic on the route and asked if I wanted to avoid it. What I like best about this cable are all the extra features that it provides. Especially the weather. TTN has nothing but traffic.

I've used the stock reports and the gas price alerts. Each time the gas prices were accurate. This is very helpful everywhere you go.



5 out of 5 stars A must have Garmin accessory   July 2, 2008

This Garmin product is worth every penny. I use it daily to get traffic updates and avoid slow routes. After a short download, everything you will need on the road is available. I use it to find the local gas stations with the lowest prices. The weather feature is great- both for the current day and the extended forecast. There are too many other additional features to mention. The potential gas price savings alone makes this an invaluable Garmin accessory.

Works great. Easy to use, just plug in and then activate on your pc. A little on the expensive side though.


3 out of 5 stars It can be more useful   March 31, 2008

I had this receiver for almost a month now with my NUVI 760. It somewhat helps me through traffic jams but not very useful many times. Here are my complaints:

1. The FM signal coverage is usualy poor in areas that are not heavily populated. I live in a less populated area. I have to do long commute to work everyday. By the time I get strong enough signal for the traffic update, I can not change my route already. So make sure both your work place and home are covered with GOOD signal strength otherwise you will get nothing either coming out of work or home.
2. The live traffic is usually 20-30 minutes delayed. Unless the traffic jam is a real bad one that will last for more than an hour, otherwise you may get a warning of traffic jam that is not there any more or you may run into traffic jam without any warning.

To be fair with MSN direct, that TMC traffic report is also delayed usually. While MSN direct also have weather report, movie time, and nearby gas prices, TMC traffic only has traffic report, not to mention that TMC traffic cost $60 per year and MSN direct only cost $50 per year to maintain.

So it is useful to some extent, but definitely need more improvement, although I dont know if that is possible!

I've been using this traffic receiver for a few weeks now with my Nuvi 750 in the Detroit area suburbs and I have been very satisfied so far. It automatically routes me away from traffic problems and I believe have saved me on my commute time. The only complaint I have is that it takes a few seconds more (about 30-60) after the satellites lock up before I get my traffic info displayed on my Nuvi.
