Magellan Roadmate 300 GPS @ The Source $449.99 save $150 incl detailed Canadian map
Just got The Source flyer, saw this GPS unit on sale at $449.99($150 off).
Include bonus: detailed Canadian map loaded on SD card, also include base map of North America(not sure it's in SD card or internal memory).
Not hot but at least a warm deal. Link below:

LOL. That was not my intention ... just a point of comparison. That's what they adverstised at The Source. They are coming out with a new version which reads the names of the streets too ... so I think this is why this one is on sale.

You'll just get confused and read the screen instead.

I can just image it reading the road names in Quebec or Montreal - rue de la this or rue de la that... eventually it will just say "rue" "rue"

I just wonder if they just have highways and not city streets if you don't have the "Detailed" version of the area you're looking for.
