The Ipod Touch with 32 GB is a fun product although a little pricey. It was delivered in a small plastic case with ear buds, a screen cloth, and a USB cable to hook it up to your computer for file transfer and charging. Shipping was standard ground and arrived within the week.

I have been using GPS units (mostly Garmin) for the past several years. The mounting system I have been using has been the suction cup windshield mount that comes with the GPS unit. Now as you likely already know, the suction cup is an easy way to mount your GPS for convenient viewing while driving, and you can still pop your GPS unit out of the bracket for security reasons or for pedestrian navigation. If you have more that one car to share the GPS with, then it is convenient to have one suction cup mount and bracket for each car.

A recent change to Friction Mount by Garmin:
We recently has car service that involved the front windshield. This meant we were not to mount or apply anything to the windshield for 2 weeks. Oh, what do do?? We actually drove away from the auto shop using the “passenger manual hold” technique! I needed to find an option that would allow for clear viewing of the GPS at eye level, without the suction cup or assistance of a stunt-human holding it up in front of me while I drove!

So I ordered the Garmin Portable Friction Mount on Amazon.com- It’s fantastic!! The base is made out of black “ballistic nylon” filled with a material that gives the base some weight. (Think small, heavy beanbag for your dash) There are 4 “petals” to the base, which serve to add friction to the unit, preventing slipping and sliding while you drive around. There is a stem coming out of the base that has the universal socket end that you simply snap your GPS bracket onto.

The Good:
The unit is great! You simply snap your GPS in and place the unit anywhere on your dash. The GPS stays put in all but the most enthusiastic driving. When we park the car, we simply grab the GPS off the dash and either place the whole thing on the passenger floorboard (out of sight) or we pop the GPS unit out of the bracket and take it with us. The cost for this base was quite reasonable.

Bonus:
Over the years of using GPS units, I have experienced two things that are common with the form

I’ve had my pedometer for almost 2 months now and I love it. It works great. easy to use and has everything you need, 7 day memory, long battery life, distance walked, and strap and case. It is also very durable. I try to keep track of my steps every day. Only one warnings, if you’re a runner the distance won’t be actuate because your strides are longer.

I got this book for Christmas this year, I sat down the next day and read the whole thing through in less than two days. It was hard to put down, such a good story and the whole things was very well laid out. It gave a great glimpse into the life on the circus trains during the depression. I highly recommend it.

I have three long haired dogs that stay inside most of the time. The furminator has been unbelievable at helping with all the shed. I bought one for my dad for his Australian Shepherd and he has been very pleased too.
