A friend loaned me his Garmin StreetPilot for a long car trip we took last week. OK, I’m sold. So now I’m not sure on what to buy. The Street Pilot i5 is the latest from Garmin. It has voice navigation, isn’t too expensive, and is preloaded with all of North America. It lacks the features of the more expensive Street Pilot 2620 that I just used, but I can’t see paying $500 more for the additional features.
I need to find a GPS gadget geek website!
Update: I couldn’t find anyone with an i5 in stock, so I bought a Magellan Roadmate 360. It has its quirks and is a bit slow to update the map, but it does what it’s supposed to do.
