Even if you just save it for emergency use alone, it is quite possible that during a crisis the nifty device will be worth many times the price that you initially paid for it because it could save jobs, time, or even lives (specifically if you’re lost and looking for the hospital). For me, it is hard to put a price on the leisure which having a tool such as this would bring however it is definitely worth the 500-1,000 dollars that is presently being charged. Remember that at the time the devices first landed on the market, 1,000 dollars was on the ultra low end.

It talks with me (and doesn’t lose it’s composure) and tells me where to go, I love that about my system. I don’t know about the rest of you, but map reading isn’t a thing I’ve ever been gifted at. That fact may have a little to do with the fact that it was not something I was ever terribly intrigued with. Combine it with my substandard observation of distinctive landmarks and I was a driving disaster.
