This is discontinued model, 2.5 years old or more. manual is 4/12 revision. The manual doesn’t appear to be indexed so if you want to get specifics on this model you can find it at http://support.garmin.com/support/manuals/manuals.htm?partNo=010-00921-00 Something that this unit and newer ones can do that makes it worth the cost alone is connect via Bluetooth to your phone (check compatibility here http://www.garmin.com/bluetooth) so that you can make hands free calls if your vehicle doesn’t support it like one of mine doesn’t. The main benefit of the ultra thin screen is that it is more portable and well suited for non vehicular use. I would not pay more than this price for any GPS as I really don’t want to expose that much $$ to the risk of theft or damage.
