I have two garmins (c5 and nuvi 200) and a Tomtom (One LE), I like the Tomtom better. Personal preference stuff aside, its hackable and you can put all sorts of neat apps on it. For example there is a program to record your route, which you can post in google earth or maps, or in scotts case, upload to motionbased to give him performance numbers for his bike ride. You can also use google maps to create your routes and then put them on your unit if you want to go sight seeing or go places auto-routing will not take you. There are even music and video players.
