650 is good, but the 660 has bluetooth.

Stats looks good and it's running a SiRFstarIII gps chipset.

Reviews look good too.

Have ever think of Pioneer GPS? My friend got one and it's kinda cool and very user friendly. If you're looking a brand new one, why don't you go to the states and bring one up here? Well, if you want to get it in the Futureshop, let me know coz my friend works there and hopefully you can get a good deal there.

the 650 is on sale at costco in the states. $100 off until the end of the month

Bartone, do you want me to check the price in the futureshop deal? If you do, pm me the GPS brand and type you want. Who knows you can get a better deal remembering you will pay custom and tax on the border.

bartone · 03-17-2008, 02:08 PM

haha right now ive decided to hold off on the gps for now. but when i decide to get one, ill give you a shout.
thanks though

Garmins are the best gps in the market right now. i wouldnt get one though, cuz thieves are GPS addicts(especially Garmins). my friend had one in his Xterra(which was hidden in the glove box). they shattered his windows and stole the garmin. he wasnt pissed about the gps getting stolen, but pissed about the window.
