Sometimes simple is better, and for that there is the Garmin Nuvi 205. The Nuvi 205 does include voice prompts, but does not include the coveted Text-to-Speech feature to speak street names. While it does not have a widescreen, the smaller size makes it easier to slip into a pocket or purse.Despite the small package and price, the Nuvi 205 can be connected to live traffic systems with an optional traffic receiver. If you need maps of Canada, consider the Nuvi 255 instead as the 205 sold in the USA contains only maps of the contiguous United States.
