| Post subject: | Portable Navigation Systems |
I was wondering if anyone might have any suggestions for a good (under $300) navagation system-the ones that mount onto the front. Please be sure to let me know about your experiences with these systems and all the pros cons as I have very little to no knowledge regarding this topic. Thanks in advance! |

one thing that I have been wondering about is how these navigation systems are updated to include newer roads. what is the proceedure? Also, is there a monthly fee of some sort included? |

If you have the room, MS has streets and trips that you can run with a USB gps. There is a bundle for 110 I think. It is big but works great. I have been using it for 4.5 years now. I suggest a power invertor for the laptop though. Matt |

Thanks everyone for your help!!! We just got a Garmin C330 on sale for $299 at Best Buy. We've tried it out and so far its great!...very easy, simple to use (we just took it out of the box and turned it on). I think it even helped us avoid a trafic jam on the 401 Express by telling us to stay in the collectors (not sure if this was coincidence or was meant to be this way).

Probably a coincidence since my undersatnding is that only major cities in the US has the technology to adjust routes on the fly to avoid traffic jams etc.... Matt |
