I spent much of C.E.S. this year comparing these models.
IMHO, the Magellan 700 blows everything else away. I rent Hertz cars and always get the NeverLost system, which the 700 is based on. The most recent version (III) is incredibly intuitive, well laid out, and I like the lady's voice who does the navigational VO. Plus, now the entire N.A. database is included in the internal hard drive - no need to download sections of the country, or switch out CDs for navigation. And it goes right on the dash, asny car any time. http://www.magellangps.com/en/products/product.asp?PRODID=955 -g

My son has the Garmin 2620,and i dont like the screen color.I like the new Garmin c330 Street Pilot because of the square large screen. Are all three basicly the same as far as being user friendly and accurate? The Magellan was my first choice.[ GPS on Sale] is selling the 2620 and the 700 for 749.99 and the c330 is 689.99 + shipping.

Doesn't matter which on-line store has the cheapest. Just print out their advertisement and take it to Circuit City. They will match the lowest price plus 10% off. That's how I bought mine. No need to wait for the unit to get here and save the shipping as well

Elau: Just came back from Circuit City in Georgia and they do not match any internet prices. I got the same results from Best Buys.

Not sure why. Mine did, plus 10%. Did you call and talk with the store manager? My store here advertises on newspaper they will match anyone's lowest price plus 10% less.
