I have both the TomTom one LE 3rd edition and Garmin nuvi 200. I never owned a GPS system before. I hear Garmin is better, but I also read that the TomTom is a good brand. I'm trying to decide which one to keep and which one to sell. I need your opinions on which is a better GPS system overall. I noticed that the Garmins graphics is nicer but I really don't care about that all that much. I also noticed that the TomTom has maps for Canada and the Garmin doesn't. I was told that the garmin has more point of interest if that makes any sense. Anything that you guys can add would be helpful to a newbi for GPS's

I guess it all comes down to:

Where you drive the most

Wether or not you can easily update the map database or if the unit uses GPS
to determine where you are and where you want to get to

Ease of use of the unit. Some have user interfaces that are easier for some
people to use and others are non intuitive to use.

Cost may be a factor as may be the overall size and in car placement.
