too bad I don't have any cash... I wanna get a new one... as my little e-treks Legend sucked on the road... too small easily at speed... and it doesn't have the high powered reception so it lost signal a couple times...

We've got Garmin for work and I have one for personal use. Great pieces of equipment.

Looks like that one is designed solely for cars. Granted, I don't have a bike, but it doesn't look like that will fit very well on a bike.

I'm trying to decide if I should go with the motorcycle version... or the car version...

the car version is cheaper... but isn't waterproof... and doesn't have all the buttons on the left... but the motorcycle one is $7-900 and you can get the same thing in the car version for sub 400... and just wrap it in a zip lock bag...

Well, I believe it comes with a windshield bracket and a number of companies make bike mounts for GPS equipment so I'm sure you could make it work.

That's a hell of a good deal. If I get paid tomorrow (cant remember if it's this week or next week) I'm picking it up.
There's no monthly fee's right?

Befor you leap folks you may want to look at a few liqidators like tigerdirect.com newegg.com or pricewatch.com as they all have name brand refurbs in the $100 range. I am in the market right now myself for a dual duty GPS and am leaning toward the Magellan Corssover,
