I'm thinking about a GPS for my Mom and Dad. My Dad has diabetes and can't see well enough to drive or read a map any more. This frustrates my Mom who now has only herself to blame when they get lost. They don't travel out of town a lot, but frequently meet with friends for dinner, a movie, or a play.(Apparently never in the same place twice.) They'll need the most simple model out there. It doesn't need a bunch of features, because they'll never use them. The more on-line reviews I read about them, the more confused I become. Anyone have an opinion on them? Thanks!!

I don't know about the stand alone units, but I want to buy one too. I know that the NAV in our Honda Odyssey is much better than the one we had in a Dodge. The Dodge NAV would not let you change much once the car was moving. The Honda will let you access all the funtions all the time.

This was an important funtion I was going to look for. I hope that helps.
