Going refurbished is better than going used. You get everything you would have gotten if you had bought new, except for the packaging, which is often a white box. With used, you have to deal with getting a hold of the original owner, asking him to unregister his device so you can reregister it, plus you risk defective components with no warranty to cover it.
Was this refurbished by Garmin?

Yes. Came in a white/blue box with the Garmin name. I think it was sealed but don't remember. I'm not sure I made myself clear before but it was Garmin that said they would honor the 1-year warranty. I was nervous about that because when I asked Factory Outlet Store about it, this is while it was on its way to me, they said if Garmin doesn't honor it, then they will. When I purchased it, I assumed they were the factory outlet for Garmin but they're not. Just looked that way to me I guess. Anyway, it all has worked out so far. In fact, I'm amazed by this device. It's understood almost all addresses and places but no matter how I say it, it refuses to recognize "Emory University". It gets just the University part. And that True Voice, have you heard Matilda from Australia? It's such a resonant, sultry, life-like voice, if you close your eyes, you can almost see her sitting next to you. I don't think I want to hear the others
