A/V input (for displaying pics/vids), fast calc/recalc of routes.<br><br>Cons: short battery life, flimsy mount (unit wobbles on rough roads), lack of color contrast on day mode (this is a map progamming fault, not the display.), the unit's "voice" is scratchy at all volumes. I'd give it 3/5 stars.
