Looking to get a GPS system - any recommendations?

They tend to be kinda pricey though....

Yea - but with my senior citizens discount and my AAA card, that should fit nicely within my budget

if you're looking for a GPS receiver, depends on what you want it for... driving, hiking, biking, etc.

Great system! you can use it with your cell phone and bluetooth, will let you know road conditions... also mobile so you can move it with you to any car.

Too bad the Lexus came with it

Hehe Styles I can't talk too much shit, with the '05 Audi Navi, you'd be better off with a compass, a pencil and a gyroscope

I've got a garmin for my walking/outdoor gpsr and then a Delup GPS for my car, hooked up to the carputer for maps.

DeanCapture · 02-03-2006, 08:51 PM

I just got the Nuvi that Mike suggested. Can't believe how awesome this technology is. Female voice telling me which way to turn and even saying the street names and shit

Will even suggest alternative routes if I get into some traffic or need to find a different way to get there. I'm always running up on car accidents or construction in LA and have to find alterate routes - this little gadget will make that a breeze.

the software I have setup does that too. It's wonderful. If I miss a turn it automatically reroutes for me. If anyone is looking for a GPS for driving, definitely get one that reroutes.

on a related note, http://www.woot.com has a pda/gps on today.
