I think some of the problems and quirks with NAV systems in general are not the fault of the unit or provider, but the fact that this is still really an emerging technology at the consumer level and some addresses are just not accurately recorded in the databases.
That said, my Garmin Nuvi 660 does an awesome job of directing me to the address and doesn't say I'm there until I'm really there. It also tells me whether it is left or right (and tells me this in advance too, so I can be in the proper lane and ready to turn). The Garmin also interprets text to speech pretty darn well, and tells me street names out loud, etc. This is really nice when you don't have the time to look at the screen.

the guy at the dealer told me to get a nuvi instead of idrive.
I don't understand I-drive why it have to be everything using the click wheel why they can make it simple like touchscreen that will be cool :rocks:
