Terrific Product
This is a terrific product. I used it as a Road Warrior and it was so good someone stole it and my Toshiba 750! The maps are accurate, including turn by turn directions and different views. Simply put, I loved it except for the price, but it's so good, I'm going to replace it anyway.

Good product for limited areas.
Good system for hiking, fishing, and bicycling.nnI have a difficult time recommending this product to anyone looking for a GPS for something other than local use.
Pros: Portability as to be expected. Decent graphics and voice. Fairly accurate GPS with good tracking. Effective program if used in an area that is covered by a single map in memory.
Cons: The software is what really holds this product back. It is limiting in many ways. If your trip requires more than 12 maps in memory you are out of luck. Example: a trip from TX to NC requires 12 high level maps in memory and local detail is sacrificed. In order to get around an accident using local roads you would have to load local maps into the memory and you loose the overall trip. nnThe software makes creating a trip a real ordeal. I am so frustrated with the software that I carry my notebook computer with GPS software for longer trips, even on my motorcycle.
