In my area we have something called "King's Companion Street Atlas" that covers the Twin cities metro area and Western Wisconsin. It covers most of my service area. It is very easy to use and very detailed including school districts, zip code areas, townships etc. Uses a grid system. It's a bit old fashioned but works quite well.

Truth be told, Garmin, Magellan, and Tom-tom are great systems that are quite affordable. These systems range from about $300 to $1200 depending on the "bells and whistles" you desire.

I am very jealous of you Jeff. I am an electronics junkie. If you do not mind me asking, how much did that system set you back?

Is that really a GPS or a 42" LCD flat panel?
