Bro, navigational skills is either you use it or you'll loose it. The more you practise, the better your sense of direction and if you don't use it often, you'll find it harder to gauge which direction you're going.

Actually it's not that huge since I drive a SUV... Doesn't look too out of place. I usu leave it in at my workplace and home... Other places, I remove it...

Ya... what you say is true.. with more & more road changes & additional routes in SG.. which i seldom travel.. it's a killer for me....
Coz currently for me is home to work & back to home mostly... That's why can't practice...  :crycry:

When I was looking at GPS, the main things I had in mind were:
1. How to update maps and preferably free. Your GPS is as good as your latest updated maps.

2. Ease of use. Some maps may not have postal code search so please select and try the GPS models you are considering. The postal code search is mostly map dependant.

3. Ease of use II. Impt thing is how long it takes your GPS to search for a location. No point sitting in the car and wait 10 mins while your set searches for your next destination.

P/S: I'm currently using a Nuvi 5000, mainly for the AV input which I've connected to a reverse camera. Don't like too many screens on my dashboard. Only draw-back is that it's meant for vehicle use, no internal battery
