Garmin adds another GPS navigator, this one an inexpensive one with US-only maps preloaded. The 4.3-inch display shows a 3-D view of the streets or route and shows posted speed limit for that road and your current speed. The Lane Assist with Junction View feature is very handy, it shows a true graphic representation of which lane to take at a given intersection, and it tells you in an easy-to-understand voice where to go. The "Where Am I?" feature lets you know your exact location if you get stuck and need help. The maps show over 8 million points of interest and you can add your own. Updates to the map are available up to four times a year and can be downloaded for free. It can record mileage, maximum speed, total driving time and more.
