I purchased the visiontac back when they had it for $99 on this site and use it with route 66. Everything works well once you figure out the bloody channels the gps needs to communicate through (i do not use "manage GPS automatically). other than that, the 4" screen is great for navigation. I have a nice setup in my car that makes the low volume of the speaker not that big of a deal. What i find works best is the following (for me)
First, plug in your car power plug for the 210, got to power settings and select fast charge. (This allows the unit to stay charged while still allowing the full brightness, bluetooth and navi software to run. I sometimes have music on as well.) connect a BT headset. Setup the BT GPS and navi software, set you destination before you get rolling (safety first) now all of your directions will come through the headset and you do not have to worry about missing commands.
I also have installed to my factory radio an aux input, and added a splitter. I can now plug in my satallite radio and IPAQ to get sound from both. be careful when you crank up your favorite song though, nothing worse than listening to "life is a highway, im wanna drive it all night *(&%^ take the next exit(&*()*" I have the volumes matched for driving, but sometimes forget if I turned one up to loud. This allows me to go without the bt headset and still hear the directions as well. either one works for me.
