Keep in mind that the 60Cx does not include the detailed street maps, a big
enough memory card, or a car mount. These options will add quite a bit to
the price. You shouldn't need to buy anything extra for the Quests. Not
sure about the Magellan.

Yes, this is a significant issue. I'm currently trying to
get a better handle on total costs including maps and
necessary accessories.

Do folks have any specific recommendations for maps to be used
with the 60CSx/76CSx? More specifically:

* Which particular street series?
* DVD versus microSD card?

The DVD seems like it should offer the most flexibility but
I'm wondering if licensing and copy protection hassles make
that a pain in the ass.

Garmin sure have done a lousy of job of describing what
you get with each of their maps and which maps work with
which devices.
