I looked at some of thoes Vic, problem was I didn't have any bluetooth in my laptop and then it was another 100.00+ for software for it. I found this with the garmin USB reciver also as Garmin uses propriatary software.

We have the Tom Tom software and bluetooth receiver for our Palm Pilot....used it this weekend in Vancouver and it was a life saver BUT it did crash a fair bit and that is frustrating...we are going to buy the Tom Tom full size unit. They sure do save you a lot of time and frustration!!!! The package we have, I don't think we would purchase again due to it crashing and stuff. And, it was 200+ US.

Being the technological failure that I am I want something that I can just plug in and rely on to give me accurate data. Is the unit that I listed above a fairly good reliable one or does anyone have any suggestions for others that have worked well for them??
