That's a serious deal.

Has not recieved very good reviews. Don"t know squat about GPS units. What's you gadget gurus take on this unit.
Thinking I might get a unit soon.

a lot of this units features will only work in your car. 

It's not water proof.

It will let you do route's i think, and that is a good thing.

cellphone integration on this unit will do nothing more than let you know you got a phone call while on the bike, sure wont be able to answer it like other bike specific GPS units.

If all you want from a GPS on your bike is one that lets you do custom routes, this one might do the job.

I did a lot of reading after Christmas and decided I want to go with the 765T which includes the lifetime FM traffic.

I believe the 785T has 9 months of MSN subscription for traffic and a few other web based "services". After that you pay an ongoing fee to keep the MSN stuff working. I you want the MSN features, this is the way to go. Or, if you do not want the traffic warnings at all, get this unit and let the MSN subscription lapse.

I think all the other features are the same for a 765T and 785T.

There is a compariosn of the different models at the bottom of the linked page.

If you see a new (not refurb) 765T for 2 bills, I am ready to pull the trigger.
