I am sorry to interrupt various political discussions.

I am looking for a nice mapping GPS system with both marine as well as
land features. It should be splashproof and accept downloadable
CDs. It will be primarily used in my pickup, but also in a boat.

I am willing to spend up to $500, but preferably $400.

if you can get a laptop for $400 and borrow some software....
even a vista costs that much.
back to politics!
