available all over in the low to mid $200 range.

i have the 120 also. great for motorcycling with wife. between communication n decent gps

(neither great alone,one futzes with the optimal performance of the other,but not enough for me not to stay with the rino model come upgrade time) i think its a usefull product.

UNLESS i get around to getting a cell phone. my wifes has bluetooth w/cordless headset,as does my son.that makes the best person to per talking setup ive seen,,gps too!

only thing missing,and for motorcycling or backpacking is the "friend location finder" rite there on the rino screen.

say she is having a problem with the rite channel or whatever,,i can still "see her" on my screen and find her.

it happened once,and we hooked up in less than 20 minutes..we were on the highway,and she took a exit,by the time i turned around and got to her exit,i could find her down the road. we lost sight of each other,and she thought i was way up ahead of her,but i was just a bit in front,but hidden by a truck,i saw her turn off in my mirror,and ya ya ya,,found her in no time.

also great i think is at the fair for handing to one of the kids. then if they arent talking,,you can still find/see them.

they are a bit pricy though. i wonder why no one else hasnt tried to make a similar one??
