I have a Garmin C340. It's as simple as a rock to use. Garmin has software so when you plug the unit into your computer it downloads the latest updates automatically.

I have a Garmin and like it. It's total touch screen and easy to use. One thing missing is that you can't program a route like for a Sunday drive. You can go to a place and program in a detour, but no circuit. I think one of the very expensive ones has this feature but not the typical $400 or less.

Thanks again for all your replies to my Question on GSP's.
I bought the Garmin C340 which Best Buy had on sale for $349.95.
That was $150.00 of List price. I hope it serves all my needs.

I use a Garmin M5. It's a good choice if your looking for something that is more than a GPS. The M5 is a Pocket PC that runs Windows.
