I traded up from a III+ to a V, and then bought a 60C maybe a month later. 60C has much more memory, the USB interface is vastly faster for downloading all those maps, and, the biggest improvement is that the 60C calculates/recalculates autoroutes MUCH faster. While I liked the V form factor and the set-up of display field while navigating/not navigating, the 60C is way, way better. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Louis Cohen Living la vida loca at N37° 43' 7.9" W122° 8' 42.8" "j carter" wrote in message news:houdnWbkwMpehyvdRVn-jA@comcast.com... > A local salesman tells me that the 60c receiver is MUCH, MUCH better than > the V.
