Reviews of the Asus R700t

CNET Review
The Good: The Asus R700t portable navigation system features a slim design and has an integrated traffic receiver. You also get a complimentary subscription to the traffic services, integrated Bluetooth, and 3D building renderings.
The Bad: The R700t doesn't include text-to-speech functionality, route recalculations weren't always efficient, and general performance can be slow at times.
The Bottom Line: For the company's first stab at the GPS market, the Asus R700t is an impressive debut, offering some great navigation features. However, we'd like to see the addition of text-to-speech functionality and smoother performance before completely committing to it.

Review Summary: The R700t has some excellent features and a decent price, but it has a ways to go before it's the ideal driving companion. For $399 we expect spoken street names and more up-to-date and comprehensive POI.
