Need a Portable GPS Unit (Maybe Not the Right Forum)

[BeauJangles]

Hey guys,

I need a portable GPS unit and I was wondering what the best bang/buck ratio is between $150 - $200. I'd much rather spend close to $150, but if the units are significantly better at the higher end of this price range, I'd be willing to splurge.

Are there any brands that are decidedly better than others?

Car navigation, hiking, boating? What is your intended use?

I prefer Garmin with TomTom next. Anything else I wouldn't even consider. I've been looking at the 765T.

http://gpsmagazine.com/ is a great review site.

Sorry its been awhile since I checked this thread... I'm all outta whack since the vbulletin switch, and we don't seem to get pm's to subscribed threads.

Huge price drops on this unit... used to be close to $400...detailed write up of this unit on above gpsmagazine site.
