For my GPS we use a Megellan Maridian Gold. For navigation I just plug the Maridian into the laptop and sink it with the program Street Atlas USA by Delorme. Since I already have the laptop and the GPS unit I figure I save big bucks using the 100 dollar program. Works great! I would not recomend getting the Delorme Program with the GPS head it doesn't work very well. But with the Maridian hooked to it I didn't loose any reception at all. I believe that you can pick up just the program for around 79 bucks then the adaptor cable for the GPS to hook it to the USB port. Actually using existing things I already have isntead of ending up with a bunch more wieght to haul around.
