4. The Gadget Whiz Recommendation

Are you a bit enamored by James Bond, perhaps? Lowrance's iWay 600c for 2007 ships with a hard disk full of covert-looking satellite and aerial photography from Digital Globe, blended into road and marine maps. It's about the closest thing you can get to having Google Earth in your pocket. While it doesn't cover every square inch of the earth, it does call attention to your dash with its ultra-bright, high resolution 5" display. The software includes buttery-smooth graphics, MP3 player, road navigation and marine maps.

The Style Verdict

The styling of the buttons seems out of place and lopsided, but you wouldn't be getting one of these bad boys for style. They are for those who prefer functionality over style, and folks who like to own extraordinary things.
