We have a Tom Tom 300 and a Garmin Street pilot C330.
Both of these have American Street maps and the Tom Tom has UK maps as well.
I have used both them in the US and both are great machines. I have to say that the Garmin maps are alot more detailed than the Tom Tom ones but having said that we have had no problems with either machines.
Sat Navs have really come down in price recently but the US maps for the units are still quite expensive.
I have a navman and its brilliant.

Garmin everytime for me.
I only need US maps so mine came from the US with the maps loaded.

TomTom for us - excellent unit, very reliable and extremely easy to use [msnsmile].
I use an outdoors Garmin (60CSx) for my walking but I prefer TomTom for the car.

We have a Tom Tom, which works well for us - as long as we make sure we have put the correct address into it!! [msnwink]
Tom Tom works for us and we have US maps too.
Hi
The tom tom one is a good buy at the minute on Halfords web site £188 delivered, the Garmin Nuvi 310D is been reduced from £499 to £289 with free updates for life worth £150. [msnsmile2]
I borrowed my friends tom tom one this week and it was very good.
The navman are really cheap as well mmmmm dont know what to do[msneek]
Hi
Because we only use the US maps I bought a Navman pin which is a handheld PC so I still get lots of use from it here in the uk. I have also bought an SD wirless network card so I can check my emails easily without carrying the laptop everywhere.
Nic.
Have posted a link in the Great Deals Forum for a couple of sites selling the Magellan RoadMate 800 for about £200 and it comes with unlock codes for the USA as well as having European maps. All are already pre-installed on the hard drive of the machine. We have just ordered a couple. [msnsmile2]
I have bought the Garmin Nuvi 310D and we are very happy with it[msnsmile2]
tom tom for us aswell and has never let us down....currently looking for US maps to take with us...[msnsmile2]
