Hi,
Does anybody have suggestions for a handheld GPS for walking in cities and towns?
We already have a garmin that we use in the car but I was hoping to purchase something smaller (and something that won’t lead us to highways)!
I’ve looked at the Bushnell backtrack but it has more negative reviews than positive ones.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thank you.

A major highway that is right in front of my house is shut down until November and my gps always tells me to get on it. How to I get it to understand that it is shut down? Their is a detour button but I don’t know what it does. I just moved to a new area and got this gps because Im not familiar with this new part of town but now it’s getting me lost. I don’t know what to do. If it helps I have the Garmin 265T.

I’d like to hook this up to my computer since it will display the location of calls that come out. Do I need a mobile internet connection to have this in my car or does the GPS work by itself similar to a Garmin.

I can not seem to find this answer anywhere.

I know with garmin and Magellan you have to pay for map updates.

Is it that you have to pay for updates with TomTom and then the mapshare makes minor corrections from users?
