My Garmin has setting for car, biking and walking, but I never checked how good it is.
My feeling is, there is no perfect GPS:
-Our house is exactly where it is. However, when I drive home Garmin says LEFT and then RIGHT. When I would go, I would end at the Gulf of Mexico (it's a very short street/cul-de-sac). The correct way would be GO LEFT and then strait ...
-Yesterday I loaded USA MAP 2009 over the Internet. It took a long time but went well ... until I was told you still need 37MB and I had only 6.6 free (even after I deleted all POI).
I feel Garmin has a little problem .. their 2009 map-update was on hold:

Thank you.
I was able to sign in to myGarmin to determine my Map Update eligibility status. They let me download the update for free....but I ended up with "you still need 37MB". The "good" news is, I can still work with the 2008 map.
BTW, what is geocaching?
