Matt,
I bought a Garmin Nuvi 760 a 4.3" touch screen it gives you the option to up load Jpegs,Mp3s and maps.MP3s play over the radio (or any stereo)from a built in FM transmitter
It came with a built in FM reciver wich allows for up to date"real time" traffic info.touch the screen and it shows troubled areas and opts for Avoidance routesprice wasn't to hard on the wallet

Live bait sharp hooks and timing is all you need

I have the Garmin 200 and I like it alot, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles like some mentioned but ity just $129 at Wallfart right now.

I had a 200 I broke before, and I got a TomTom and hated it! Just did not say the stuff like the garmin so I returned it for another Garmin.

Slingah,

Candi's got the tom tom and its awesome can synch it on the pc easy to use etc. Just dont leave it plugged into the usb port on your pc for extended amounts of time unused. Aside from that works great. The silent one has the garmin and its pretty easy to use and has that night driving feature thats helpful.

Domination takes full concentration..
