Well for those that don't have a Costco near by, or are not a member, or
they don't have them in stock at the store. I only saw up to 512K ones I
believe in the store. I bought the 2 Gig SanDisk Compact flash card at
www.ecost.com . It was the first time I've done any business with them. But
they had them in Stock, and it arrived faster then I thought it would. It
was $135 plus $10.40 in tax, and $5.95 handling fee, (free shipping) for a
total of $151.35. It works great. It took a bit to boot up the first
time, but after that, it loads up about a second slower then it did before.
I can't believe the price on these things dropped so fast!!! Wasn't long
ago that they were in the $300-$400 price range.

Nice not having to worry about having the correct Maps. Only have to screw
with it If I do a Map Upgrade. I'm still not sure I want to fork out $150
for that though I do have the Upgrade CD! I may wait until V7 comes out.
Do what I do with other software I have and upgrade every other year, like I
do with say Norton SystemWorks, or Quicken.
Hopefully a Upgrade from V5 to V7 is will still be $150 or better yet,
lower.
