A quick look at the Garmin site and there are some very flash models out there.
Is lifetime maps up grade a valuable extra?
Not sure what I need to do to get UK-EU maps but that's a side issue as far as I am concerned.
So now it is really how expensive do I get with one of these?
Does it match that more expensive gets a better unit?

Slowy,
Screen quality & size and overall bulk of the unit seem to relate to price. The Nuvi 3490 I use is very slim and has a great screen....very Android/Applesque. My missus inherited my 2 year old Nuvi 3790 which is externally is identical but has slightly different software....hers also has Spongebob Square Pants handing out directions
If you buy the unit in Australia to primarily use in Australia life time maps is great. Don't buy a LMT unit overseas as the LMT doesn't apply to Australia.
If you choose Garmin I suggest you access MyGarmin and register. It will advise you of map and software upgrades. Easiest way to get UK maps is to simply buy them through MyGarmin and they'll download straight to the GPS.
Cheers
