Garmin have always preferred one could tell even from year to year always blatant improvements and innovations. With this device, I'm really completely happy and it really leaves no wishes more open. Very cool, I find the lifetime free cards / updates! the other has none with! So with Windows 8 running the thing super, register on garmin.de and Garmin express install and the thing to keep up to date with updates and you've got his dream Navi!
