Garmin StreetPilot 7500 is excellent!
Review of Garmin StreetPilot 7500 - GPS receiver 7500 12 channel GPS receiver by
muskafella
Advantages: Large screen size, Easy to use, Plays mp3s
Disadvantages: Graphics, Size and safe mounting
...the most expensive unit, but Garmin seemed best, and the 7200 and 7500 have the largest screens. The screen is large and very easy to read. Some Pros: - All the maps (US) are included. No need to pay for extra unlocks and deal w/ getting them going. - Works right out of the box. - Works well with XM - Easily plugged into my computer, for loading of mp3s and books. - Interface is probably not the easiest, but that's because there are so many ways ... ...don't want to muck w/ anything, it's ready to go, and you could just go w/ the default interface. Some Cons:
- Calling customer service is brutal. Once I reached them, they were absolutely knowledgeable and easy to understand. But reaching them meant several failed attempts over several days.
I would defidently recommend to a friend ...

Excellent GPS
Review of TomTom GO 720 - GPS receiver 720 GPS receiver by
bboothe83
Advantages: Big Widescreen, Easy to use Controls, Stylish
Disadvantages: Price
...had been looking at the TomTom One, but his unit has much more to offer. It has a bigger widescreen for easy viewing. This really helps when you are trying to look at maps while driving. I have been to some very far out "off the map" places, and this thing has always updated correctly to show exactly where you are and the best route to reach your destination. This unit is a little higher than the TonTom One, but it is well worth it due to the extra ...
