Oh and the Nuvi is so small, you can put it in a coat pocket when you are at your destination. It's about the size of a wallet.
Well obviously being able to maintain contact with the satellite and get me where I am going is the number one thing I want from a GPS. But POI is the second most important. I really don't care about MP3/multimedia features.

How is the screen on the Nuvi? Bright? Easy to read?

Magellan had more problems than anything else we sold. I work at Best Buy and wouldn't exactly call myself retarded.
