3. Fabulous deal!

   by Lauri Pittman

   I purchased a cable in a local office supply store for $20, then thought I’d look online to see what I could find. I found this cable that works just fine for under $1. You can’t beat that!

4. Garmin USB Cable

   by Wendy

   This was part of a gift. A couple of the review said to specifically get the Garmin USB cable so I did…I didn’t want the recipient to have a problem. The delivery was quick

5. Very Happy

6. It does the job; it’s inexpensive

   by E. Turner

   There’s not much to say. It works. It does what it’s supposed to do – connect your Garmin to your computer. And it cost a whole lot less than getting it from Garmin.

7. Not Compatible with Garmin GPS Units

   by clazy Chollie

   Having read, from product reviews regarding the Garmin nuvi 1350T, about the importance of obtaining the correct `USB data cable,’ I included an order for a `Garmin 1350T USB data cable’ when ordering the previously mentioned Garmin unit. The first order of business when setting-up the nuvi 1350T was product registration and software download, so I attempted to connect to a PC running Windows 7 and encountered an error message that, in effect, said “whatever you’ve connected to the USB port is not recognized .and isn’t going to work.” After several unsuccessful attempts through device manager to connect with this machine, I moved the operation to a PC running XP Pro. At first, XP saw the device and recognized it as a GPS unit of unknown origin. Then, after running Garmin’s updated USB drivers, the XP machine gave me the same response as the Windows 7 machine. Utilizing device manager, I tried rolling back the drivers, uninstalling the drivers, and several different sequences of re-installing drivers while the device was either connected or not connected, all to no avail. Finally, six hours later, having exhausted all options in both the Garmin and Microsoft knowledge base, I tried using the USB cable from my digital camera, a suggestion made by my wife early on. Instantly, XP recognized the USB device as a Garmin GPS unit, identified the model number, and loaded the drivers.

   I sent an email to Eforcity explaining this problem, and received the following response:

   “Thank you for your recent inquiry with us on Amazon.com.

   7. Brief Reason for Return:

   There was no `form’ attached.

   So my advice is: Order the proper USB cable from Garmin or Nikon or other company more familiar with the requirements for a `data cable’ than Eforcity..
