RE: GPS question
The Garmin 2720 is a great unit. \\; I've been using a 2610 since they first came out and have not seen anything out there that would compel me to sell it and get another. \\; I know there are some great deals to be found on them if you shop around.

RE: GPS question
Doesn't the Garmin 2720 have an internal hard drive instead of using memory cards? \\; I may be wrong, not sure. \\; What I've read is you want to stay away from any unit using an internal hard drive, they don't hold up well to vibration.
I've got a 2610, been happy with it. \\; Friend of mine bought a refurb 2610 last week for less than $170.

I forgot. If you don't need the Bluetooth you can get the ZUMO 450 which will save you a 100 bucks or so. \\;

RE: GPS question
2610 has flash memory and is a great unit, especially since you can get it on the net for a great price. \\;\\\\\\; it is water resistant and works great. \\;\\\\\\; GPS is great since you can leave your planned route and explore off the main routes and still get directions back to your destination.

RE: GPS question
Zumo 450 or 550 built for motorcycles, or can be used in the car.
Love my 450, but think I might go the extra for the 550 and get all the extras free. Cables, mount for car, etc.... Plus have the additional advantage of Bluetooth, for the future If I ever wanted it.
 \\;
Have my zumo hardwired into the fairing area, and sound plugged into the stereo, So I hear the directions as well as listening to the 2 gig's of MP3 music I have stored on the card. Yes I would do it all again! Water proof, vibration quality made for Motorcycles, You bet!
