gps navigation systems
If you've been thinking about buying a GPS, then your first step is to compare GPS navigation systems to find the right one for you. Although they all do basically the same thing, there are a number of differences you need to know about. Also, the price range varies enormously--from less than $200 to over $700! Figuring out your budget and what you can buy for the money is the trick to getting a system you're going to be happy with.
When I talk about GPS navigation systems, I'm usually talking about those made by the three big manufacturers, Garmin, Tom Tom, and Magellan. I'm not saying the others are not good. There are plenty of other companies that make excellent systems. I guess I have a personal preference for staying with the big companies.
