If given the choice, which would you pick and why? Garmin streetpilot3 or the Garmin IQ 3600

Hi,
The Streetpilot 3 is excellent. I had one for about a year or so and it worked great and the best part is using the bean bag base on the dash. The unit is easy to put into the proper position and does not move around. Also, I liked being able to move it between cars.

Do you see any additional value in the Palm features of the iQue. This is a big plus of this product.

I have the iQue and it works great! Can't speak to the Street Pilot. The portability of the iQue is great. Voice directions work great.

I suspect they both use the same software so the actual features of GPS are probably the same.

FYI - be advised that there is a new map software release for the Street Pilot III.
The upgrade cost is $150 I believe, so be informed if purchasing.

I have used this system in Hertz rental cars and their 3d nav system. It works really great. Now with this, I have never used a Streetpilot so I can't compare.

I believe the Streetpilot 3 has been replaced by the 2610.
