I've sort of narrowed it down to those 2. I was also looking at the Garmin M5 and Navman 570, but the former is too pricey for the speed & features and the latter has Teleatlas data which I'm told isn't as good as Navteq in north america.

The asus has wifi which might be a nice thing on a trip (the 632 is cheaper and doesn't), but comes with only a 256 card, the Myguide has 2Gb, you can buy it with smaller cards but then you'd have to buy additional map segments and not get cross boarder routing (which is nice for long trips) so the 700 is probably the better choice from the myguide line. I think you can slice & dice the destinator maps to suit your need so maybe you can get away with less memory (a bit more work up front but that's OK)

So it comes down to Oncourse (navigon in europe?) vs. Destinator..

Any opinions?

(personal leisure travel, Toronto to Miami, with excursions to UK).

Thanks
