of line units with all the bells and whistles. I had rented a couple of cars with

GPS units and found out what I liked and what I didn’t like. First off, do not but

any unit without the text to speech feature. Without this feature the unit will tell

you that your turn is approaching but not the name of the street. The text to speech

feature will speak the name of the street that you need to turn on. This feature is

a must have. Without it you will staring at the screen waiting for the update to see

if you are nearing your turn. With this feature you can listen without the need to

be looking at the screen. The wide face is very easy to see. I knew that it did not

come with a carrying case but since it never leaves my car that was no big deal. I

also bought the bean bag holder and I have not even used the suction cup. I was

warned that thieves may target cars with a suction cup ring on the windshield as

they assume that the unit is in the car. I stow the unit in my center console when

not in use and put the bean bag under the seat. This unit starts up in about 30

seconds and I have not opened the user manual once. It is so easy to use right out

of the box. If you are looking for an easy, accurate GPS this is a very good pick. http://bit.ly/9yhmiQ
