I have a a 255 and I love it. I just bought 2 more today. One for my father for xmas and one for my bf for xmas. I absolutly love the gps! I have always had a phobia of driving where I dont know where Im going. I drove from Ohio to Louisiana and back with NO problem thanks to the gps! Im not afraid to drive anywhere as long as I have it with me. Its very accurate and theres no way you can get lost.
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: Nothing
I would recommend this to a friend!

With MSN Direct being dicontinued in 2012 does that mean the live traffic feature will then be non-existent?

I'm new to the GPS world and I'm looking for a GPS that has traffic information available ... accidents, construction, etc. I don't understand the whole discontinuation of the "MSN Direct talk" - will the live traffic info still be available or will it no longer exist? If it will no longer exist - are there other options out there to take its place? Hopefully someone can help me out here ;)

PS: I keep going back and forth between tom-tom and garmin - any advice on that is greatly appreciated as well.
Def go with Garmin. Its very easy to use and very accurate!!
