What will be the best (best does not equal most expensive!) GPS to get for my F800GS and occasional car use?

Zumo 400 / 500 . . . ?
Nuvi 500?

Any other options?

Including mounts and chargers
Not interested in Bluetooth and European maps and stuff – want to use it in AFRICA :-)

GPSing will also be able to give you good advice and is able to supply as he has a GPS-and-related-goods shop.

If you look at the "Memberlist" page, you'll get his web site details, or PM him.

If you're into some geocaching and much more: Oregon, and Nuvi 500 is a good call.

Bike/car navigation only: Zumo 660.

Save money, don't care for basic screen resolution (like old VGA screens): 60CSx or 60CS.

I'm happy with Zumo, especially the loading of music on it for the longer trips Smile
