You can pick up a GlobalSat BC-307 for $65 - $100 on eBay (I paid $96 USD + S/H), and Mapopolis Navigator (the application is free) with the map for your city for another $13 USD. If you want all US/CDA maps, it's $99. The GobalSat is terrific and usually comes with an antenna and adapter so you can use it with a laptop. Mapopolis is also terrific, IMO. I found the Gomadic mount an excellent value at $35 USD; it includes a power supply for the Axim, which you need when using GPS.
However, as a new driver, you might find it dangerous to be distracted by a GPS while driving. Perhaps you should consider waiting a year.
