The Garmin Nuvi 350 was great when we first bought it - and is still a good model today - it gets us from place to place with an easily readable display and excellent choices for voices. It came preloaded with extras that we never use - an MP3 Player and language dictionary... only really good if you're planning to travel away from home...
What I do love about the Garmin platform is that it is integrated with shopping, lodging, community places and more. I love being able to find a bank or a post office when I'm out of town or just scan for places to see and things to do as we drive along the interstates...
WHat I would upgrade for... voice commands, real time overhead signs on highways and integrated traffic management capabilities. The one other thing I would love to see is realistic distances over time (including the potential lights) and also a pop-up of the speed limit for any given road.
