Hi,
have you seen the garmin nuvi?
the following is a quote from amazon.com
Product Description
Product Description
The nÜvi is a portable GPS navigator, traveler's reference, and digital entertainment 
system, all in one.
I'm sure you could find much better discriptions on the net though.
Hope this helps.
Chris

Hi,
   I'm thinking about getting a portable GPS unit for someone sighted.
It
should have turn by turn directions.  Synthetic speech for street names
would be nice, but is not essential.  It should have quick acquisition
time.
I've seen a Magellan unit that takes a really long time to acquire the
position.  Also, I'd like it to come with the whole U.S. maps and POIs
built
in.  It should also have a battery so it can be used handheld or if the
power source in the car is temporarily unavailable.  Any suggestions?
