I cant find an update for the maps!! As advertised. The box comes with a cable to connect to the internet, I dont want to use the mp3 option. To put it lightly, I am a country boy in california who knows a lot about back roads, and this thing always tries to take me to the freeway, highway, or interstate! The options in the settings are: Major, Less turns, Fastest, Which some roads I noticed that have been established for 4+ years are not on this thing! Instructions in the book dont tell you nothing about "updating maps" We read it over and over and come up with the name of the program Nextar uses, but when you sign up for automatic updates..... nothing! Nothing at all, you have to choose your language, plus the product you bought.... which is not on thier list x3-02. I have been waiting several months for an update notice..... I guess I have to drive MY way and not the GPS way, and keep going "off road"--"make a uturn" untill the TTS gets its way!

I will say, I sent my 2 girls to Sacremento..... everytime I plugged the address in, the TTS lady will get you there! I tried myself several times in the 2-3 months I owned it, TTS gets you there, but what about the roads that have been established for 4 YEARS? No Updates?????

I recently received this as a gift for Christmas.

Positives: Music player a little quiet but like an ipod with speakers; Can possibly save your butt when you're lost; Very portable; You can plug it in right out of the box

Negatives: Sometimes take ten minutes to get enough signals to locate where you are; About half the drives I took it lost my position multiple times and repeatedly told me to take u-turns even though I was still on the correct route

I live in the Boston Area so maybe it works better in different regions. Good luck!

I have read many reviews and it is stating the product is average, I have got the new Nextar X3-02 Gps Navigation System today, and i did a test run more than 1 hour, the item is working excellently. This unit is pretty good for the money we spent, for the same features we need to spend minimum of 300 dollars. Out the box the unit worked very well, i connect to the laptop and recharged the inbuilt battery. i observed that the volume could be louder, it is in medium level. Text to Speach is working very well. It is recaluclating the route fastly.

Want Nextar X3-02 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator Discount?

Item lasted about 1 week. Sent it to Nextar for repair/replacement. They sent me a replacement and it lasted about a week and went dead.

My first GPS was an Nextar X3. It quit working shortly after getting it and I was charged $25 S&H to get it repaired. It worked OK long enough for the warranty to run out. It was always very slow aquiring a signal. Now it locks up 3 to 4 times on a short trip (less than twenty miles). It takes 5 to 10 minutes to get it to reset and even more time to aquire a new signal. I have had it for over a year but haven't used it more than 20 times. The initial price was cheap compared to other units but expensive considering the limited use I got. O well, I just solved my problem with the purchase of a new TomTom. I will never buy anything with the Nextar name on it.Nextar X3 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator and MP3 PlayerNextar X3-RE 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator
