I am looking at cars, and it seems like if you want a GPS navigation system it costs thousands more, but if you go to circuit city or somewhere where they sell those hand-help GPS navigation units like from Garmin etc. they cost only a couple hundred. Is there a difference between these two that I can’t see which explains why the car navigation systems cost so much more?

Are these the same? Im looking for a GPS thingy but I cant tell if these two are the same. Also, which one is best to use. I need a compact one to use in the car and to carry around. My preferences: accuracy, easy updateable maps.

I found that the Panasonic Strada CN-GP50U GPS System has a 5 inch screen, but I’m looking for larger than that. It’s also important that it’s not bulky. Any suggestions?

which one is the best GPS navigation system in the market?

Just bought a used 2001 Lexus SUV in Mint condition. The GPS Navigation system works but needs to be updated or brought up to date. How much should it cost to do this and is it something that needs to be done every year? Thank you for your help.

I work as a college admission counselor, and travel to community colleges twice a week. I would like to get a GPS navigation system, as I’ve discovered that I lack an inner compass and frequently get lost (my atlas has been helpful, but it is dangerous to consult it while driving). I would think that 90% or more of my usuage of this product would be business related, but I don’t know if I would be able to write this off since I’m not self-employed. Any thoughts?
