The best deal of the week has to be the Lowrance 250C for $177, with an additional $10 off if you use Google Checkout. The Lowrance 250C looks like a decent entry level GPS. Haven't used it myself, but PCMag reviewed it.
Prices on the TomTom line continue to eek down after the big price drop ahead of what looks like big new GPS announcements coming out of CeBit 2007 this coming week...
