If not garmin, then what else? i am looking for an in car unit with
atleast 3.5" screen and ability to read OSM maps as well as save
tracklofs. A windows CE unit will also suffice.
If nothing works, I will get one of those chinese win CE units.
Since its windows CE, software control is with me, but the question is
that how reliable they are
