GPS Decision

This week Best Buy has the Garmin 255W for $149.00. Next week it has the 205 for $100. I would not use a GPS very often but it would be convenient on occasion to have one. Is it worth the $50 extra for the wide screen and text to speech for an occasional use? I'm reading there might be volume issues with the 255W. If anyone has any hands on experience with either model I'd appreciate comments.

TTS is worth it for me and I'd pay the $50. But, that's me.

The widescreen is nice, but i always keep it muted.

Thanks, I've decided to pay the extra and go for the 255W. I'll be looking for a good sale.
