GPS Navigations Systems?

Ok I need some help. I want to get a GPS Navigation system put into my car.I really want to get a GPS put into my car. But I've been debating on which one is the best....In Dash?....Portable?....Laptop? Right now I have the Laptop GPS, and of course it is not touchscreen and you have to carry around this laptop (which is really nice to have because I didn't have one before. :) But lets say you go "Off Route"...the in dash and portable will recaculate and reroute you to tell you where to go, but the laptop does not, you have to do it manually. The laptop also has more options that you can put the time in and it will tell you the time that you get there. Does the Portable and In Dash also do that? At least with these, you don't have to use Mapquest anymore. Which is the best to get, does anyone know. Just need some help in which is best. I guess I thought they all had voice guidance because even my laptop Microsoft Streets and Roads GPS has voice prompts.

The newer dash GPS systems will do all that and more (and be legal to use on the road). Tom Tom are releasing the 910 shortly - thats what I am holding out for. Go to www.ciao.co.uk and check out the GPS reviews - very comprehensive enjoy
Garmin is the best brand but make sure to factor in the mapping software (about $150) If not already included. Both Portable and Dash GPSs have the same features except for voice guidance which is more commonly found in Dash GPSs.
Go with the TOM TOM units. They attach to your windshield with suction cups, thus allowing you to put it in any car you use, even when on travel.
