I want to be able to use my 4150 as a gps aid in a roadster--top down.

I'm concerned about quality of maps for Canada. Have you a preference? What's the best setup? I need good coverage of curvy, fun rural roads.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Gotta give a thumbs up for the Canada maps that came with my Belkin BT gps. I believe the software is the same as the deluo routis package.
I've driven from Toronto through to Ottawa (so far) and all the major (and more minor) roads have been there sure as sunshine.

Where's the best place to purchase GPS for Canada, for the 4150?

Soden, why would you need GPS from Toronto to Ottawa, when all u need to take are the 401 and 416 ;-) BTW stay away from the rural roads... I've had bad experiences.. not safe!

Good point about Toronto to Ottawa - what I should have said was, Toronto, Whitby, Port Hope, Colborne, Brighton, Trenton, Belleville, Napanee, Kingston, Brockville. ie - highway 2. My dog could drive the 401 and not get lost, but get me on highway 2 and it's a whole new ballgame. Not a lot of inner city detail - lots of streets not there, but there are enough major streets to get me through. As for the best place to buy - that was the toughest part. Everywhere you go it's full price and then some. $400 for the HP gps? C'mon! future shop, bestbuy, radio shack - all dismal with selection. ebay was even a little short on name brand gps. I ordered through the belkin website finally and used the well documented promo code that reduced the $399 pricetag down to $140US. Well worth it.
