I'm also a fan of TomTom. I have the 700 (last year's model), and other than needing to know the town for your location, it's perfect. It's VERY easy to follow, and doesn't always take you 4 miles out of your way to stay on state routes (in fact, once in the very upstate New York Adirondacks, it took me on a packed gravel road for 1/2 mile, which cut 10 miles out of the trip!). It also easily allows you to avoid a section of road or to try other routes. Oh, one other issue (and I can't speak for other navi systems other than Acura which does this correctly) - looking for distance to points of interest, it measures as the crow flies, so from the highway doesn't always show you the closest, or what is in front of you. Anybody know if the Garmin Nuvi does this correctly? The Acura shows your points-of-interest ahead or you, or behind you but adds in turning around to get there into the distance away.
