Not only are these units faster than the older units, they are mobile, much clearer screens, easy controls or menus. I am pleased enough to begin to upgrade each of our in use older 2070 units.

Comments:
Two main problems with this unit so far are as listed below: 1. Only accurate to within 150 ft. May be at neighbors driveway instead of customers driveway if you aren't careful. 2. Do not download new maps into the 205w as the new maps include maps of Canada which will lock up your unit. Call and talk to an actual tech support person (not the first tier tech) to get proper instructions to avoid frustration and down time.

Finding things in the menus is not always straightforward. Once you understand where all the settings are located, it is very feature rich.
