 VERY impressed with the Navigon 2200t Oct 27, 2008
By R. Mendel
So far I am REALLY happy with the Navigon 2200t. I kept going back and forth between the 2200t and the 7200t. Although the 4.2" widescreen on the 7200t is nice I didn't need the bluetooth capability since my car already has it.
The 3.5" screen on the 2200t is plenty large and easy to read and type on. It would be nice if it had a QWERTY keyboard onscreen but the keyboard is intelligent only displaying relevant keys. I had no problem typing my destinations error free.
One of the complaints I read about past Navigon units was slow performance for GPS acquision, routing, and the menu system. That issue has absolutely been resolved with the new Navigon line. The menus are quick and the GPS locks on almost instantly. The traffic features are nice to have especially here in Atlanta. The speaker is surprisingly loud and clear when speaking the directions.
The reality view is a really nice feature when navigating complicated highway junctions and was one of the reasons I went with Navigon. Although I just received the unit I am very pleased with the build quality, performance, and routing so far. Its really a great deal considering similiar features are hundreds of dollars more with TomTom and Garmin units.
My only complaint would be the directions included in the box are pretty poor (just a quick start guide). I had to get on the Navigon website to download the full instructions. Not a big deal though.
Overall I am very happy so far and highly recommend the Navigon 2200t.

 Navigon 2200T - Just Got One Nov 09, 2008
By Steve C.
I just received my Navigon 2200T and have it for about 2 weeks now. First impression on the unit is the design is very nice, small and compact which can easily put inside my pocket. The reason I get this one over the 7200T is the 4.3" might be a little too big to put in my pocket and it is a little heavier too (not to mention it costs more). Like the previous review said the screen is big enough to see the direction. The bigger screen on the 7200T is only giving you the width which isn't very helpful.
As far as performance goes it takes a long time to log onto the satellites (more than 20 minutes) every time I turn on the unit. I emailed Navigon customer support and they instructed me to reset the unit. I did that and it immediately acquired the signal. I said to myself "wow, it really works". Unfortunately as soon as I turn off the unit (or standby mode), the problem of logging onto the satellites comes back again. I am not sure if I have a defective unit or this is just the way this product is. There is no way for me to reset the unit every time I want a fast satellites signal. All my saved addresses will be lost and it is a real hassle to re-enter them again. I already sent another e-mail to customer support and hope the problem is the unit itself.
SUMMARY-
Pros:
1) Free Life Time Traffic;
2) Compact and light weight;
3) Good looking design;
4) Clear picture and direction;
5) Warn you if you are speeding;
6) Lane assistance;
7) Good price;
8) Fast response from customer support;
Cons:
1) Logging onto satellites signal is long;
2) No wall charger with the unit;
3) No USB cable with the unit;
4) User interface is not as user friendly as Garmin;
5) No user manual with the unit, you have to download from the website;
6) The battery is draining fast, it won't last more than couple hours with a full charge;

 Great product with only one apparent con Nov 19, 2008
By Azhar
I was one of the first people to buy this GPS (it was sold out for a long time after that). I have it for about 4 months now and I love it!
The best features are:
1. The reality view which shows lane pictures and highway signs as they appear in real life.
2. Real-Time traffic update. It was delayed by about 10-15 minutes when I passed a few traffic accidents and congestion but still it's pretty awesome feature to have for the life of the GPS.
The only bad thing I found was the time it takes to search where you are located in the country. Sometimes it takes 10-15 minutes to find the satellite signal. That's the reason why most of the time, I end up using my older GPS unit (MIO) because my old one takes no more then 1 minute to locate the signal (too bad it has old map).

 Okay, but Garmin better Nov 26, 2008
By BJDelaware
"Bill"
My Garmin was stolen out of my car, so I decided to try this Navigon because it had the traffic. I suppose Traffic might be better for someone living directly in the city, but it's not worth much to me. At times, it detects/reports traffic that isn't there. So aside from not being able to trust it, when it reroutes, it doesn't seem to take into consideration how far out of your way it will take you. Would I rather sit 20 minutes in traffic or get routed 45 minutes out of my way?? Like I said, the reroutes in the city are probably helpful, but not in the suburbs.
In terms of the directions it gives, it's not as intuitive as Garmin. It tells me to make full right or left turns when the road only bends to the right or left. This can cause confusion because sometimes there are left or right turns near to the bend. Garmin also seemed to know better exactly where I was. It would tell me I had arrived at my destination "when I arrived". Navigon tells me up to 200 yards sooner.
I am using Maps as they were delivered out of the box as I have not yet paid for the Fresh Map updates. They seem more outdated than Garmin was, which was purchased over a year ago and never updated. There are roads which have been in place for approximately 4 years it doesn't know about. The Fresh Maps option was a selling feature for me as it would have provided 3 years worth of updates at a reasonable price. But how good is it going to be if they don't recognize 4 year old roads on a product that just came to the market? This is a brand new model, I expected better maps out of the box.
On the positive, the POI database seemed a lot faster than Garmin. I've read it doesn't contain as much information and maybe that's why, but I liked it better.
Overall I had high hopes and was disappointed. I just purchased a new vehicle with Onstar. I think I'll give that a try...

Smart Unit Nov 15, 2008
By T. Mabry
The Navigon 2200T 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigation with Text-to-Speech and Free Traffic Alerts is packed with features, fairly easy to setup with menu's grouped intellingently for general and specific settings. If you are new to GPS technology as I was (Yeah, I know Johnny come lately) be aware that it does take a considerable amount of time for the GPS to locate it's position the very first time you use it. I took mine outside, placed it on a chair and left it for about 35 minutes before it finally logged it's position the first time. Also the subsequent searches for new destinations can take 3-4 Minutes (not the 2 or less it states.)
For the price (and I have been waiting some time because the $400-$600 I was seeing on these units was just too steep) this delivers bang for the bucks. One final comment.. when you exit the highway, it will direct you to keep straight on the highway you just left... it's a little confusing until you realize that it considers the service road / exit ramp as still part of the highway. That being said, I highly recommend this unit. So far, the Turn by Turn directions has been dead-nuts on, text to speech is pleasant and if you make a mistake... miss your exit for example.. no worries... trust me.. been there done that.. this thing rocks for getting you back to where you need to be. I gave this a 4 Star rating out of 5 because of the time it takes to calculate new destinations (after the initial first time usage).
