Sounds like everyone is excited about Garmin maps and GPS on their Blackberries. I cannot figure out why for the life of me.

Aren't you much better off buying a standalone GPS unit and leaving it in your car or moving it from car to car? Costs no more, has a touchscreen......

The only advantage of Garmin maps on your Blackberry is if you need GPS while walking around. If you do, download Blackberry maps (see threads elsewhere telling you how to do it), as I did, and you have a free GPS system on your phone.
