I just fried my Magellan GPS so had to do a quick replacement without much time for research. What little I did led me to the Garmin 1450LMT with lifetime map and traffic updates. There are more expensive models and brands, there are also less expensive, but the lifetime (4X a year) map updates was important to me as it cost $70 a year for the Magellan. Got a price off of internet, was going to stop by this morning and purchase replacement, lo and behold today's sales ad knocked 60-70 $ off, so all the better. The research I did seem to be pretty convincing, we'll see how it works out.
