I picked up the Garmin Nuvi 200W from staples for about 240$ last week. I just used the applied suction cup mount on the bottom right of my windshield. I find it loses satellite a lot I'm going to return it and maybe pickup a different one.

I have the Garmin 200. Picked it up on Black Friday for $124. I used to put it on the holder but now just store it in the center compartment and take it out when needed... GPS has never failed on me and acquires satellite very quickly...

I have the 340..or 320...streetwhatever. I gave it to my daughter to use since she was in a different town, she's not given it back to me. It only lost satelite when in the santa cruz mountains and in very dense forest. Works great 95% of the time.

Where did you guys find such great prices?

I work i new products at a GPS leader...lol!! Unfortunately we don't make consumer products.

I've a Garmin 350. It is the same after market model that BMW sells with their logo on it. I am in love with it! It holds its programs even going through Norfolk's long under water tunnels. If something happened to it, I would get another one in a heart beat!!

The garmin 660 with a lot of features some of which I dont need has been greatly reduced in price .The new 260W ,also with a four inch screen is priced somewhat lower priced Without the unneeded features. The 660 has much longer battery life . Any
opinions?

If you go to the Garmin web site, you can select the models you're considering & get a features comparison.
I found it very helpful.
