Portable Gps
I am planning on purchasing a portable GPS system for my husband on his birthday, and have absolutely NO?
knowledge whatsoever about GPS systems, I thought I would ask my buddies at Yahoo Answers their opinions. Please let me know your thoughts from all perspectives: ease of use, portability , and cost, too. I always wonder if salesreps are just trying to sell me the most expensive model or, for that matter, one that they are trying to get rid of!! Thanks, in advance!
I have a Garmin. When you shop make sure you pick a unit that has "text to speech". What this means is the unit will say "take a left on Henderson Drive" as opposed to units without this feature which will say "take a left".

Hi, John here. I love golf and tech gadgets and the two merge here with these really cool Golf GPS Systems. I wasn't finding enough information on them to suit me on the internet and can't stand the stuffy pro shops so decided to put together this blog crammed with information, articles, reviews, pics, videos, you name it. Hope you enjoy!
