Happy with Nav System

I don't use a lot of the features, but for navigating and allowing me to take a "short cut" not recommended but still routing me to my destination, the Garmin is great. I haven't been confident of the "traffic routing" system working, but the search for a destination works fairly well, it re-routes quickly and is nice and small (making transport easy). I can also plug my Blackberry charger or computer synch cable into the device to recharge it (and didn't have to buy an extra wall outlet chord - that was very nice!)

This is my first device I ever owned after using one in Ireland last April. I haven't really seen that the traffic avoidance works, but overall it seems like a great product. I have only owned it a month, so I cannot speak to its long-term reliability. Seems like a safe purchase worth the money to me.

What's great about it: Set up / quick start was clear. Suits my purposes (driving to new destinations all the time)

What's not so great: Often reverts to a Chicago location when first turned on even though I live in the DC area. Short battery life.

I would recommend this to a friend!

what is the BEST unit for a motorcycle

I don't know that this would work for a cycle - there is no attachment device for a cycle. Also, the battery dies quickly, so unless you can plug it into an outlet on the bike (I don't have an outlet on my cycle), I do not recommend my Garmin unless the trip is only an hour each way.
