Garmin PDA GPS

If you are trying to decide what type of GPS system to buy for your personal use, there has never been more options out there. Just take a drive on your local highway and you will see lots of the portable GPS units mounted on the front windshield with a suction cup. These are much more cost effective alternative to the expensive units that come factory installed on new cars. However, these units are only practical inside of car and not really meant to be hand carried. Hence, the latest line of Garmin PDA GPS units. These handy devices build on the already Palm OS platform and add in the convenience of Global Positioning Satellites. With these, you can have the best of both worlds. A Garmin PDA GPS will mount in your car and you can remove it to use as a handheld device as well. Garmin is the leader in handheld and auto GPS systems. So it was a natural fit for them to produce a hybrid unit that can do both jobs well.
