I still say go where you can play with a number of them and pick the one that seems most comfortable to you.

Your thoughts are noted and I plan on going to Best Buy and checking out the units in stock.
However, the last time I checked GPS Units out at Best Buy about 4 years ago, they had some type of a demo video running in the units playing an advertisement and I couldn't actually play with the various settings ...... Don't recall which brand(s), but I know it wasn't worthwhile as it didn't let you do anything and all the same info was on the Internet. I will go there again just the same to see what I can play with these days.
Thank you.
