[QUOTE="Greenzilla, post: 9356, member: 559"] Talked to a fellow rider at a rally who I've known for many years that loved his. Some pros and cons he mentioned Pros - MP3 capability. large database of restaurants gas stations etc. ability to scroll the screen by touch (drag the screen to where you want). very intuitive. Directions actually state "turn right on main street" as you approach main street instead of 'turn right 50 feet" like other units I've heard. Routing preference can be set on a scale for highway vs secondary roads, toll roads etc. Plenty big enough to see while riding. Cons - Does not do mid way way points, so you need to put in each intersection where you plan to turn for a circular route or if you have to ride on a certain road that is not on the calculated path. I saw him calculate a route from Asheville NC to his house in San Diego - only took about 30 seconds to do - not sure if that is quick or not. Plenty big enough to see while riding. [/QUOTE]
