I'm curious ... what are the details of "trip planning" that S&T make so easy? The larger screen you get with S&T on a laptop I appreciate - but what else?
I use my Garmin to finger-tip zoom in/out everywhere in the U.S., find all kinds of destinations before a trip or while traveling using both Garmin's built-in databases and the hundreds of thousands of destinations I've loaded in from POI websites, and plan custom routes from beginning to end with multiple destinations. All this of course can be on tap in the Garmin without Internet access or the monthly access charges.
