By wubayou (devhardware.com)

Asus has decided to take the plunge into the GPS market with the introduction of the R700t GPS. It is the first GPS from Asus, and while not perfect, the R700t is a worthy unit, especially when you consider that Asus is typically known for just making ...

"Great for $199 ebay; ++features than more costly models"

By gem0502 (cnet.com)

This is my second gps as I have a MIO 310x an... 

Lifetime free traffic monitoring ; 3D ; bluetooth ; easy to navigate menus if you are familiar with gps devices, if not, the menus could be confusing. The ability to make and receive phone calls and sms msgs through the R700 is a definate plus

Fatal error displays in navigation mode if mini SD card not inserted (directions don't mention this) ; difficult to transfer files to the mini SD ; no printed manual ; no dashboard mount although the window mount works well

Traffic update is cool

By TT (newegg.com)

Overall great GPS product. Looks nice and it's not that "common" so your friends will give you the eye like...Asus GPS? every time they ride my car...kind of cool.

Got this unit as a gift and literally worked out of box. Was able to get the traffic update working here in LA and San Diego area, pretty cool feature. Also linked with my cell phone on the first attempt.

Battery life is not as long as I have expected, but it has AC adapter and in fact this GPS is a lot slimmer than most of 4.3"" I have seen.

Expensive Paperweight

By BFesko (newegg.com)

NewEgg has done its part well in handling the return and sending of a second unit out to me in good time. It's a shame, though, that ASUS is failing with this product. I gave this product a chance since I've been happy with ASUS motherboards. This just is...

It navigates, however I don't feel it is as user-friendly as other comparable units.

It has very limited POI functionality in some areas. ASUS has been giving me a run-around on this issue, and is failing to address it. They've repeatedly told me that an update will be available soon, but can't provide an ETA. I've been waiting for over t...
