I agree with Bad Bing for the list you provided.

I have had Magellan's, Mio's and Garmin's. Even the older Garmin Nuvi (650) blows away the newest of Magellan's and Mio's GPS devices. To me, Garmin is worth the extra money and quite often, you can find a refurbished Garmin Nuvi 750 for around $149 on Newegg and other websites.
