I also looked at Garmin, but the TomTom was the only one available with a pc interface and the ability to plan an itinerary by entering a specific starting point. The Garmin would only plan an itinerary from the current GPS fix. The Garmin probably has better North American maps. I have TomTom ONE and am very satisfied with it.

I think ATT's Blackberry 8800 has built in GPS system. This may help you saving new hardware and update map cost.

It was easy to install from computer downloads and it works great. I am not sure about free updating -- visit their site:http://www.garmin.com/garmin/cms/site/us… and it should tell you. Or the retailer where you are shopping can look up on their store computer and tell you there. I got mine at Best Buy and the gave me all the bells and whistles off of their product info on their computer. I got the Garmin 420 and LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!
