I think this really depends upon if you are going to use it in the
car... I am reluctant to carry around a 2.8 AMU box in the hot sun in
my vehicle on a regular basis... I bought a 396, but haven't actually
seen the 496....
Why do you need the 496 to use in the car? I've got the car kit for the
296, and other than the fact that I have to load the card with detail maps
I understand that I have exactly the same capability as the 496.
I've got to say, it's great when you get out of the plane and toss the GPS
into the rental car, punch in the address of your hotel, and it just takes
you there.

Get with the program, jeffrey. No one is 'wrong' on Usenet. They are
either 100% totally correct, or they are 'a lying, scum sucking weasel.'
There is no in-between. -- Garrett Johnson
