Rand McNally has 150 years of expertise in maps but I still don’t know why they took this long to come out with a GPS navigator. The Rand McNally GPS Navigator is simple enough for everyone to use. The Rand McNally GPS Navigator is the only system available with both paper maps and a portable GPS system. You get the big picture an atlas provides and turn-by-turn GPS navigation in one box. It goes for $499.99, and it comes with pre-loaded maps of the U.S., Canada,� and Puerto Rico.

Unique features:

• Simple, intuitive, and easy-to-use system with preloaded maps of the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands for voice-guided door-to-door routing
• Portable and lightweight design that’s a full inch thinner than many GPS devices in its class, so it takes less space on the dashboard or in your a purse or briefcase
• The Rand McNally Road Atlas and Travel Planner for a big picture overview of where you’re going
• 26 Best of the Road� trip itineraries with suggested attractions, restaurants, and shops selected by Rand McNally’s award-winning editorial staff
