    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic for the price. Very pleased -- despite so many poor reviews...   September 8, 2008

    I bought this GPS unit from Bed Bath and Beyond with a 20% off mailing, even after reading the reviews here. (there's also a $30 rebate on it additionally at BB&B).

    I was very skeptical, but the price was right. I noticed that I originally had trouble getting a satellite signal... *until I read the manual* ... and I have had NO PROBLEMS since! :)

    I have used it on several trips -- battery life wasn't terrible, but definitely take a charger on trips over an hour.

    Also, the car charger for unit included fits my blackberry phone (extra bonus, in my book).

    This is a great, inexpensive GPS unit. I enjoy it very much, and I think you could too!!

    This was a gift and did not work out of the box. The GPS could not read map data from the SD card. Tech Support couldn't do anything so they referred me to customer service. I placed 5 calls to customer service and was never able to speak to a live person. None of my messages were returned. If you read this string of reviews, they are critical of Nextar for a reason. Nextar has no consideration for YOU - their customer. I don't recommend buying anything from a company that operates like this.


    1 out of 5 stars you get what you pay for, in this case i really overpaid   April 8, 2008

    I trusted some positive reviews and took the plunge and got it. Wow what a mistake.The first problem is that it makes a horrible sound when you plug it in to charge it and when you unplug it. The other part is that its not upgradeable and only comes with the USA map. The mp3 player is pointless as you would need to change sd cards out beefore you could use it. The software is glitchy and doesn't work when hooked up via usb to your computer. The points of interests are poor as well with very limited info. It boasts 1.6 million but doesn't even find a walmart, costco, or some other local stores that have been in business for over ten years at their current locations. Nextar wants you to pay for updated maps. Many name brand competitors give you upgrades for free. My suggestion would be to buy a tomtom for about 50 bucks more and at least in a year youll be able to find the places you need. I paid 114 and believe i overpaid, 50 bucks is more like it for a throw away gps.


    5 out of 5 stars Great economical GPS that works   March 18, 2008

    I bought this gps expecting very little given it's unknown name and low price. What a surprise! It is very well built and works right out the the box. This is my first gps and I found it very easy to use. I have it working in less than 10 minutes and it acquired the signal right away. There are some features that you will not find in this unit like real time traffic etc. that would have warranted only a four star. However, given it's price and what you got, it is worth a five star.

    I received the P3 for Xmas 2007. I was very impressed with the accuracy and ease of use for the first week while driving to and from work and stores. On my first long trip (3 hours) the unit kept freezing and had to be turned off and on around 20 times during the trip. On most reboots we had to wait 3-4 minutes for it to pick up a new signal. Twice it came up with a "Fatal Software Error" on the screen. I called Nextar and they said my unit was defective. I returned it to the store for a full refund.
