What do you use for a GPS device? Prior to discovering the Motion X app on the iPhone I had always been big fans for Garmin devices and their ease of use and elegant interface. Amazon has knocked $100 off the Garmin nuvi 1350LMT 4.3″ GPS with lifetime map & traffic updates bringing the price down to $148. For those of you who still prefer to use a dedicated GPS this might be a good deal for you to check out. From the product description:

Prior to going 100% iPhone GPS navigation I’d been using a Garmin nuvi that has to be at least five years old now. From personal experience Garmin’s portable GPS devices stand up well to wear-and-tear and the only downside to mine was having to purchase new maps every year or so. This would make an excellent second GPS to keep in the vehicle or to use as a backup and you can’t really beat free lifetime map & traffic updates.
