Garmin - StreetPilot c330 — 

The Garmin C330 is a very reliable GPS system. It will take you turn by turn in an easy to follow map and voice command system. Programming a desitanation is also easy and quick. It gives many good points of interest that covers all your needs.

One thing I am noticing after about 2 years of having it that the maps are getting outdated and are expensive to update, when driving on a new unkown road the device tries to get me back to the closet known road. If you do not know the area very well it can be very confussing  on where you really need to be. In some situations it defeats the purpose of have the GPS unit. Another sticking point is the price for the updates of the maps, for about the price of the map update I can get a new unit. For the money I spent on it I don't feel I got the true value of of the device if every couple years I need to buy a new one or drop $100 on a map update.

Over all I am happy with the device but wish the maps would be cheaper and easier to update.
