Can a European* navigation system help you find your way in the United States? That question got a straight YES when TomTom entered the market and while not perfect, it sure gained the respect of mostly PDA users in both camps PalmOS and PocketPC. In its latest incarnation, Navigator still supports...

As a die hard user of traditional maps (and more recently, Google Maps on my iPhone) I have reluctantly held back from the temptation to buy an automotive based GPS system.
However, with a 7000 mile cross-country (and back) RV vacation planned for this summer, it became increasingly clear...

Pros
Small, light, easy to use interface, accurate, flexible.
Cons
Initial lock-on needs to be done standing still, more turn warning time.
Recommended it?
Yes
I purchased this GPS after moving to a new city, to help me navigate around until I learned where everything is located.
