Garmin Quest 2The Garmin Quest 2 is another great innovation from GPS leader Garmin.  Highly portable and conveniently tucked away in a pocket or a purse this small wonder is no small feat.  Its high sensitivity and high speed processor make it a mammoth of a navigational aide.  Featuring automatic routing and USB data capability this portable GPS device maintains all the versatility you’d expect from advanced electronics without sacrificing quality.

 

With over 6 million points of interest and highly detailed metropolitan area maps and routes the storage capacity is clearly adequate for a full range of applications.  It even comes with 35 MB of extra storage space so you can store your own maps!  Bright screen and a simple to understand interface round this out as one of the best GPS devices available!

Garmin Nuvi 200The Nuvi 200 series from Garmin GPS is a great simple device. It has an absolutely amazing screen, the voice prompts are easy to interpret, and the map is very easy to follow. If your navigation needs are simple and you just want to get a device that will remind you of turns and take you to new destinations, the Nuvi 200 would be a great choice.

 

A 3.5″ touch screen display powers the Nuvi 200. This screen is BRIGHT! It is brighter than the screen on the 300 series and is visible from a wider viewing angle. The whites are extremely white and bright sunlight never made the Nuvi screen difficult to read. The screen is one area where the Nuvi 200 performs better than the 300 series. This is one of the best 3.5″ screens I’ve seen.
