Default Aviation+Street GPS

Charles,


Does anyone know of any reasonable cost GPSs suitable for both street
and aviation use.



In a word: No. While the Garmin 296 is a nice unit, it will be much
more expensive than, say, a Lowrance 600c for aviation (the Airmaps
don't do turn-by-turn) and any TomTom, Garmin or whatever for streets.


I'd like to see Tom Tom freak out when you're going over
intersections diagonally. No stop signs, no red lights,
no "left turn at next intersection".
