Another question. Does anyone use the iPhone or Droid with the GPS App? If so, does it work similar to the Garmin and others and give you the MPH? I would be less inclined to leave the phone than the stand alone GPS.

I have a Garmin and a Nexus One Android 2.2 phone. I recently visited The Villages looking at homes. The phones turn-by-turn worked much better. Partly because Google maps are more up to date than my older Garmin maps. But the Android also works better. Voice input is great, say "Navigate to 123 Main Street" and away you go. No more "recalculating", it just corrects. The voice instructions seemed more accurate and timely. You can layer items, traffic, restaurants, etc. On the cool side, it automatically switches to Street View to show you a picture of your destination when you arrive. The only downside on the phone was battery drain, I generally kept it on the charger.
