How would this TomTom compare to the Garmin 260W ($130 deliv, refurb)?
I've never used one of these things, so ease of use would be my first concern- eg, inputting a new destination while on the road.
I see the Garmin has a larger screen, text-to-speech, probably longer batt life...
Some think the TomTom has more accurate last-block-to-go directions?
Seems none of the less costly ones come w/home ac charger, do they charge when plugged into the mac usb?
-another interesting looking option for $10/mo if you have the right gps-enabled phone (I don't).
