GPS/NAV Question

Hey all,
does anyone know of a portable GPS unit that has the same display, info, graffics, format as the C6 unit.

I had a C6 and absolutely loved the Nav. Had to move back to a C5 (l my lawyer won't allow me to tell why) and would like to find a portable unit that operated the same.

I've looked at all the usual units (Garmin, Magellan,etc.) and can't seem to find one that would duplicate the C6 unit.

Thanks for any help.

Tony

P.S. See ya at Carlisle!

I don't think there is an available unit that meets these requirements.

If you check out Hertz Corp. "Never Lost" it has the same interface. I bought it from Amazon about 3 months ago and it cost about $550. It does MP3 and JPG also, but I don't use it for that.
Check it out, they are nice units, IMHO.

PS I also bought the NAV in the C6.

I agree I brought one (the Mag 800) when I can back from Iraq and use it thought the Midwest and onto my home on the east coast and it was right on time each time.

It is all the features you want maybe not in the same order but it is all the key features and more. It is a great unit and plus I can use it in my other vehicles.
