Adam Loose May 24th, 07, 9:55 AM Who has them,what brand,etc. I'd like to get a good one for under $300. So what do I need to look for or stay away from etc.Any comments or suggestions will be helpful.Thanks Byfield May 24th, 07, 10:02 AM Delome sells a great gazetteer for about $15 ;) Andy69 May 24th, 07, 10:33 AM We use a Trimble DSM212H DGPS reciever with Hypack Max navigation software running on a WIndows XP laptop. Of course, it's mighty awkward for use in a car, given that it's marine survey grade equipment :) Sure is fun to play with, though dreis454 May 24th, 07, 10:53 AM I've heard good things about Garmin John_Muha May 24th, 07, 11:28 AM I still use Streets & Trips into a laptop. Might want to compare prices with these guys. http://www.deluoelectronics.com 70_Malibu May 24th, 07, 2:34 PM The Tom Tom ONE gets good reviews. You could get one here with the $70 off coupon code below: http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=A0937717 Dell Home has the TomTom ONE GPS for $299 - $70 code $M5M2G$ZR0J6C4 [Exp 5/30] or 500 uses = $229 with free shipping. I've never used one, but I came across this "deal" from another site. RedSS454 May 24th, 07, 4:21 PM I don't have one of the portable units, but I have one of the in-dash flip screen ones. Best money I have ever spent. Good to with-in six inches i believe, and hs the ability to look up resteraunts and phone numbers. I don't know how I ever got along without it. But the point I was getting too: We went on a trip to Pennsylvania awhile back before I got my set-up. He had a Magellan (sp?) unit. He plugged in our destination while in Pa, and we began driving. We went to get on the freeway, just like Magellan told us too. Problem was that the navi told us to get on the Exit Ramp :eek:. Just my experience with them... Chris steve58 May 25th, 07, 7:23 AM Got the Garmin Nuvi ,although well over 300.00,so far so good.It does have a lot of features that will never get used,like,bluetooth?,mp3,photos,interacts with FM. Got for my daughter(new driver) she didnt have a clue about directions! Has a great "Go Home" feature! 138car May 25th, 07, 8:05 AM Pretty nice one here.. ;) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Miniature-Traveler-Auto-Car-Truck-Dash-Compass_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ6755QQihZ012QQi temZ220049380930QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V combine it with a $3 street map and you cant go wrong. bowtie6872 May 25th, 07, 2:52 PM laptop (closeouts) 200.00 wireless card 30 and mapquest web page.. steve58 May 25th, 07, 5:06 PM The great thing about nav is if you make a wrong turn it will tell you how to get back on your route | ||
