Never miss a turn again with the Nextar W3-01 GPS navigator. Preloaded with maps of the 50 U.S. states and equipped with 1.6 million points of interest--including gas stations, restaurants, movie theaters, and more--the W3-01 makes it easy to get just about anywhere. Simply enter information on the navigator's 3.5-inch touchscreen display and let the voice prompts guide you to the destination. The navigator is also notably versatile, with both 2D and 3D viewing modes, along with a night mode feature that adds light to the screen for easier viewing. And should you make a wrong turn or take a detour, the navigator automatically recalculates the route and gives you new directions.

The navigator sits at an easy-to-read angle on your dashboard.

Other details include a built-in MP3 player that will entertain you en route, a Secure Digital (SD) card slot for added memory, an address book with room for up to 300 addresses, a speed alert that tells you when you're exceeding the speed limit, and a built-in rechargeable battery. Bundled with a DC adapter, USB cable, pouch, and suction cup, the W3-01 measures 5.19 by 2.99 by 1.2 inches (W x H x D) and carries a one-year warranty.

Worth every Penny!!!
i bought this nextar because i travel alot and it always costs me at least an extra $15 a day on GPS rental. so i did my research and found this nextar W-3 GPS on amazon. i bought it and have been using it for about a month now. it's a great Navi system. i recommend it to everyone.
dont trust the reviews. for the price you cant go wrong

Never lost..
Its stock voice is pleasant.. Screen image is clear and crisp..
We've used ours driving from Chicago to Missouri, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, and the whole way to Vermont! We were never lost..
One complaint ~ the car adaptor got broken after plugging & unplugging under normal usage..
Would purchase again if I needed to..

So far, first rate
This is easy to use. I set it up to take me on major routes to my destination. This will occasionally take you a little out of your way, but probably not a longer time period. It is so much less expensive than most GPS's I worried that it would be hard to use. It has a feature for music that I don't use and can't imagine why I would -- maybe for exercise walking? The screen is easy to see, and the voice directions make it safe to use also. I liked it so well that I have bought another as a gift.

The disadvantage is that the instructions say not to start the car with it plugged in. It is easy to forget to plug it in after starting the car so it might need charging at just the wrong moment. And it is easy to forget to unplug it before turning off the engine. Also the auto charger cord is so short that it is stretched tight and comes unplugged easily. The unit now has available on line a charger that can be plugged into household current. Map updates are not yet available on line.
