------GPS Choice------
-----Wife wants to get a handheld GPS and Im wondering weather a Garmin or a Magellon would be a good choice. We are limited to these two choices. It seems I have heard that Garmin is good but Jan says Magellon is a better deal. Can anyone out there give me a bit of direction???

Tibor says Charley's Magellan kept taking him toward Italy.
 I'm happy with my Garmin.

Re: ------GPS Choice------
Sounds like a great Christmas present idea for my wife. What model Garmin would you recommend? Which one would you stay away from? Thanks!

Re: ------GPS Choice------
I too am in the market for a GPS. Rob in your opinion, why is the Magellan better than the Garmin? I have always favored Garmin but would like to hear the pros and cons. I don't mind paying up for one but would like one of the best.

Re: ------GPS Choice------
I thought you had "the best" GPS sitting next to you already. You know, that sweet female voice saying "Don't you want to turn HERE?", or "Are you sure you want to go THIS way?", or "Isn't it faster to go the other way?" Who needs some electronic gizmo that bases directions on FACTS?
