I have the older Nuvi 52lm and I bought a Nuvi 2529 LMT'D for the wife yesterday.
The Nuvi range is now being phased out in favour of the "Drive" range so got a great deal yesterday at Halfords on this one. It's good because it also has the Bluetooth hands free phone feature with it and live traffic reports. I thought it may be a gimmick but we've just tried it and it's the equal of the one fitted in my BMW's Idrive, so a result there for the money.
As I posted though, just curious to learn why these downloads take so long nowadays with fast broadband.
