Love the way it lights up the street sign for the exit to take and dims the street sign that isn't part of your route. The lane indicators on the bottom tell you what lanes you should be in and what lanes to stay out of to ensure that you don't find yourself in a "Must exit" lane.

Provides the next 2 turns and their distance.

Current time / Time @ arrival / elevation / current speed / Speed limit / Traffic camera warnings / 3-D buildings when in a downtown environment to provide a visual indication of when to turn.

I used TomTom for a few years on my Mogul - Never again. This is in my opinion the best PPC navigation suite.

And no -I don't sell it, I just spent months trying many of them out given my travel schedule and wanted to pass on what works for me.

If you find the screen too busy, the same company makes a different front end called "Amigo", same maps, simpler front end.

The lag isn't as bad as it was with the TP1, but there is still a little lag.

Best !
