Safer than trying to read maps while you drive, and much more comfortable than being unsure of where you are and how to get where you want to go, the Jensen NVX227 3.5-Inch touch-screen Portable Navigation vehicle navigator helps you get where you are going in the quickest, most convenient way possible. The Jensen NVX227 utilizes a crystal-clear, brilliant full-color, 3.5-inch touch-screen display to show you at a glance where you are, and where you need to go. This unit provides you with turn-by-turn voice prompts, in selectable female and male voices, that let you know in advance where you need to turn without you having to ever take your eyes off the road. The NVX227 features route calculation based on user-input preferences, with automatic re-routing when you deviate from your planned route, whether it is by accident, or by choice. This navigator also features over three-million POIs (Points of Interest) so you can easily find what you need wherever you are at, as well as displaying your estimated time of arrival, distance left to travel, time left to go, and miles per hour, all of which is calculated automatically. Jensen's NVX227 portable navigator has a built-in SiRF Star III GPS receiver for the ultimate in accuracy, and comes fully embedded with complete maps for the United States, as well as including a CD with maps of Canada. This unit has an internal, 1 GB flash memory drive for downloading additional maps or POIs, and a secure digital card slot for expandable memory options. The NVX227 runs on a rechargeable, lithium-ion battery for the longest possible run time and no-memory effect, and comes with a USB cable for both fast data transfers and recharging your battery. The Jensen NVX227 touch-screen navigator includes a cradle that features a built-in speaker, and comes with an easy-to-use windshield mounting bracket and a 12-volt car power adapter.

 Many Flaws December 26, 2008
C. Kitchens
This GPS was made in 2007 but does not allow many street numbers present for many years. It misidentifies roads and sometimes routes you incorrectly. It tells you to take nonexistent exits and turns. It has frequent software errors that require restarts only possible by cutting all power. Update 1/3/09 Audiovox (Jensen) responded to my complaint as follows: There are no map updates available yet and we do not have a precise release date at this time. The best thing to do would be to check the Audiovox web site from time to time for availability and cost.
Audiovox is not responsible for the mapping software. You can report missing map information, incorrect routing and other mapping problems directly to the mapmaker online at:
[...]
So they intend to charge for updates if ever available-good to know when considering purchase.
 Not as bad as the other reviews November 1, 2008

I own this GPS. It does tell you what street you are turning onto, if you read the instructions and set it right. It is a bit bulky but for my non-tech savvy wife it is great. Youcan do almost everything withour the stylus expect type in the address. It is a bit dated on the streets but with all of the construction going on what model isn't. It is great for the price and if you don't mind the size.

Thumbs down all the way.
I bought this and had to return it within a week. I have used many GPSs Different brands and models and this is the worst.
It was constantly hanging, and I had to reset it everytime. RESET - not just power off-power on.
Lost signals regularly. Once I was driving on a straight tree lined street (about 2 miles) and it kept recalculating the route every 50 yards or so...
Bulky.
Worth no Stars. Do not buy it.

The chip is way outdated and the GPS does not identify the street you are to turn on.
