Answer 1

pioneer just released a new one that is dash mountable AND has hands free blue tooth built in to it ( if you have a blue tooth phone) Pioneers nav is one of the best. I sell em and use them in my vehicles. Think the model number is avic - s2. Just released!

Answer 2

Today's GPS units all work fairly well. The biggest difference used to be the maps, but even the maps are similar. User configurabilty and map update costs are important considerations. Most have internal batteries that last 2 to 8 hours and can be recharging (via the cigarette lighter socket) or a usb cable.

I like the TomTom One. The USA unit includes maps of US & Canada. In the box you will find a usb cable, a cigarette socket cable, and a suction cup mount for vehicle mounting. The box also includes an adhesive surface mount pad if you do not wish to locate the unit on the windshield in plain sight.

Are you interested in using your gps (for free) to detect traffic cameras? See how my $2000 Acura system compared to the $250 TomTom Version One (look for poi file on page): http://www.a2dvoices.com/realitycheck/gps/TomTomGPS.html

I have the Mio digiwalker 220 and for under 100 bucks its well worth it.I wanted a Tom Tom but compared features and price and am very pleased with the Mio.

Answer 4

They have them really cheap in bestbuy these days - starting from $100. Most are pretty good but I'd stay away from anything other than TomTom and Garmin. Especially delorme!

Answer 5

I recommend a Garmin C330 street patrol. It's an inexpensive unit, but very reliable and has all the extras I need, plus it's extremely easy to use.

Answer 6

i have a gps system on my cell phone, it works great, and it's cheap...
