I've heard great things about Tomtom, but there isn't as much info about garmin around. The Garmin offers mapping for the USA, which could come in handy, but the tomtom has various other extra's. Does anyone have personal experience with either of these?

i think the easiest way to tell the difference between the two would be to describe tomtom as waitrose and garmin as asda... when you buy their products, they both do the same thing, but tomtom/waitrose has that something a little bit special.

...suction cup mount?
There is a port on the side of the device that the vehicle power cable fits into, but the manual says the vehicle power cable is designed to plug into the suction cup mount. What happens if I plug the vehicle power cable directly

Garmin makes a couple of power cords that go from one GPS to the other. Read the instruction manual, if it says a power cord plugs in there it will work. It will not recharge unless you have Ni-Cad rechargable batteries. Garmin is an excellent unit and
