Road Testing : Garmin nuvi 1490T vs TomTom XXL 540s

http://www.gpspassion.com/fr/articles.asp?id=279

"INTRODUCTION - In early December 2009 my wife and I traveled to our
winter vacation home in Palm Springs California from our house on
Vancouver Island in Canada. This trip, covered some 4500 miles in
total, and stretched over 3 months, with us returning to Canada in mid
March of this year.

During our trip we used both the TomTom XXL 540s and the Garmin Nuvi
1490T, together and separately. What this allowed us to do is give
these units a side by side, as well as a one on one comparison along
the west coast of the US and Canada, including the heavily populated
areas of Los Angeles CA, Phoenix AZ, Portland OR, and Seattle WA. As
our trip progressed we updated this topic in the AIO (All in One)
Comparisons forums with our findings as we compared these units and
took questions.

What we would like to do now is to summarize our findings in regard to
the TomTom 540s and Nuvi 1490T. If you have questions or comments you
can use this topic of the forums."
