car gps need a new one

Guys not quite fishing related but in the market for a new gps for the car.  Had an older navman but it always gave me the shits as it would always take you the long way or in some cses  the wrong way.

After something with a bigger screen and easy to use.  And something that can have the maps updated.  Oh and one that knows left from right.. biggest bug bare of the old one.

Cheers guys,

Checked out a few in the shops and have gone with the Garmin nuvi. ended up getting from an online aus site in sydney $90 dollars cheaper than Perth shop prices with free delivery and an extra 70 dollars worth of accessories as well for free.  (240 charger and carry case) 

should be here by Tuesday.

My Melways has never told me to turn left when I needed to go right, bet it was cheaper than any gps to.
