Beach Camera is a reputable retailer. I've purchased a camera through them, and wouldn't hesitate to order from them again.

I have a gramin, easy to use and pretty accurate. I travel solo, also. I don't use the suction or dash mounts, instead purchased weighted base; makes it simple to transfer unit rv-toad and back.

One feature I wish I had; long/lat capability. Feature that is a must; verbal street names. Good luck in your search and travels, Kathy

Not certain if it would be a consideration, however I run Streets & Trips with a GPS antenna in my car. I drive approx. 1000 to 1500 miles a week on average for work, started with a magel. 300, upgraded to a garmin, both screens were to small at times. For less than a hundred bucks, its worth the consideration.
When I start fulltime in the MH, it will have a jotto desk in it, and my laptop.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here that is most likely going to make me look stupid but.....why is long/lat capability an important feature to all of you when using the unit for simple to and from directions?

I know I want it to be able to post/track my position while I'm on the road, what else do you use this info for?
