You need to develop a list of requirements.
  • Driving? with Verbal directions?
  • Altimeter?
  • Southern Hemisphere?
  • Iphone application?
  • Water depth and tide charts?
  • Long Battery life?
  • Solar Powered?
  • WiFi to get map updates?
  • Micro SD card to store and archive routes?


These guys have been in the GPS business for years, at least 15. They have a simple site,, full of good info.

Good Luck..
Let us know what you find..

Under $300, basically verbal driving directions in U.S. and Europe. 3-4 hour battery life and plug-in capability in a rental car.

Water depth?

I don't think I need to archive as they never seem to send me to the same place twice.

I'll check the sites ya'll mentioned, thanks, I obviously came to the right place.
