Nuvi 650..still a good bang for the buck?

[tennvol]

I'm up to date on the new handheld models but not too well versed with the automobile units. The wife wants a gps that will talk to her and give her turn by turn voice directions. I saw that the Nuvi 650 is $299 at costco and was wondering if this was still a good unit for the price or is there something better out there in the $300-$350 range.

That's a really good price. Things you're missing that I can see:

 

Bluetooth interaction with phones.

Autosorting multiple destinations.

MSN receiver compatibility.

Where am I--closest everything for emergencies.

Autolog waypoint of where the unit was removed from the windshield (to find where you parked.)

FM transmitter

QWERTY option on keyboard.

 

Uh...might go to Garmin's website and compare but the Nuvi 650 is a really good unit.
