  1. GPS units will work anywhere.  The only problem is the software (maps) loaded on them.  The units sold in the US have US software.  The units sold in Europe have Europe software.

    You can buy a software chip for about $150 that has the Europe maps on it.

    When it comes to GPS, you really do get what you pay for.  The higher priced ones definitely are better.

    I have a Garmin Nuvi 260 and love it. (for driving)
