Most popular Navigon GPS systems:

The Navigon 2100 is especially hot right now as it appears to be one of the big Black Friday Units for 2007. The 2100 and 5100 being standard screen, 3.5-inch units and the 7100 a widescreen unit.
The Navigon 7100 is a great choice for those looking for a high quality portable GPS navigation system.When the Navigon 7100 was first introduced in the U.S., it was initially priced at a whopping $649! Now it’s priced in today’s competitive GPS pricing sweet spot.
One of the key advantages of Navigon 5100 GPS is that important hardware is fine-tuned. You invariably get a larger screen, for instance. There aren’t many smart phones that have a screen as large as the 3.4in one the 5100 has, a feature that makes road layouts easier to see and on-screen buttons easier to press.

Most popular Lowrance GPS systems:

The iWay 500C from Lowrance Electronics is a Global Positioning System-based (GPS) navigation system that also functions as an in-car digital music player.
I just upgraded from the 500c to the Lowrance iWay 600C for my bike two days ago.
The good news, no over heating, even after trying it in my Jeep on the windshield on for nine hours straight. Also, the display is better. The satellite overlay is limited in my area and personally I consider it more of a gimmick then an improvement in navigation. The menu is great step forward over the old one, much simpler.
This is one of the most impressive pieces of electronics that I have ever owned. I was always afraid to go out in waters that I had never gone to before. But now with this Lowrance 520c GPS, I go all over without fear of getting lost. No boater should be without this piece of equipment.

Most popular Mio GPS systems:

The Mio C220 GPS is simple, straightforward, and easy to use. It offers a compact, no-fuss design and an accurate GPS.
The Mio C230 is a standard screen GPS follow-up to their Mio C220 model that established a solid entry in the GPS market below the $200 price point.
The Mio C520 has numerous strengths. One is the degree to which you can get in “under the hood” and fiddle with its settings. The inability to do this with Garmin’s nuvi and StreetPilot c5xx lines has led to some complaints. Another distinguishing feature is the split-screen map interface.

Most popular Garmin Nuvi GPS systems:

The Garmin nuvi 200W is a wide screen version of the entry-level nuvi 200. This is still a very basic unit, albeit with a 4.3″ touch screen instead of the 200’s 3.5″ screen. Like all 200-series nuvis, this GPS navigator has the new internal antenna, for a sleeker design than older nuvis which still carry the flip-up antenna. 200-series units also include 6 million points of interest (POIs), voice-prompted directions, picture viewer, calculator, currency converter, unit converter and world clock.
The Garmin nuvi 350 GPS has proven to be an incredibly popular touch-screen GPS navigator. Garmin bills the nuvi as a “a Personal Travel Assistant™ that combines a GPS navigator, language translator and travel guide capability, an MP3 player, an audio book player, a currency and measurement converter, a world clock, and a digital photo organizer.”  
In the short time I have had the Garmin Nuvi 660 GPS, I have to say that it’s the best GPS I have ever used. It has all of the features that make a GPS worth loving, and with its super bright widescreen, it really stands out in the sun. The slim form factor, at less than an inch thick, is great.
