Plenio VXA-3000 GPS is back in stock at CostCo

I just put an order for one is today. Price is 369.99 plus tax and ship. 7" inch screen is very very nice. I'm returning a 3.5" Michelin X930 that I got yesterday. Screen is way to small, the UI is not human friendly and speaker sounded horrible. I guess for 190.00 you can't expect to much. I'm hoping the Plenio is better.

Recieved the Plenio 3000 last night. After a little setup and updating the firmware, I took it out on a quick test. 7" inch screens are very nice. The british voice is pretty entertaining but the unit is not Text to voice nav but rather, "turn right at next opportunity", "exit hiway in 500 yards", ect. The screen is big enough to have all the info you need, so you'll see the name of the next street you need to turn on way in advance. Very easy to input destinations and it has a very large database of POI's. I recommend anyone wanting a large screen GPS and not wanting to spend $8-$900 for a Garmin, take a look at Plenio. Costco has them online for 369.00. I think a remarkable deal for the money.
