More info on the Garmin Nuvi 205W (As extracted from Garmin Website):
Portable and affordable, nüvi 205W is your personal travel assistant for life on the go. This navigator leads the way with turn-by-turn directions to get you there on time. It's packed with destinations and detailed street maps. Like the rest of the compact nüvi 2x5-series, the 205W is priced right and ultra-easy to use.
Navigate With Ease
nüvi 205W comes with preloaded street map data. (Please check with local dealer for the detailed map coverage.) Simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and nüvi takes you there with turn-by-turn voice directions, 2-D or 3-D maps and smooth map redraw rates as you navigate. Its digital elevation maps show you shaded contours at higher zoom levels, giving you a big picture of the surrounding terrain. In addition, nüvi 205W accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs. With HotFix™ satellite prediction, nüvi calculates your position faster to get you there quicker.
Take It With You
Like the rest of the nüvi 2x5-series, nüvi 205W sports a sleek, slim design and fits comfortably in your pocket or purse. Its rechargeable lithium-ion battery makes it convenient for navigation by car or foot. With its "Where Am I?" emergency locator, you always know your location. Simply tap the screen to get your exact latitude and longitude coordinates, the nearest address and intersection, and the closest hospitals, police stations and fuel stations.
Go Beyond Navigation
Navigation is just the beginning. nüvi 205W includes many travel tools including JPEG picture viewer, world travel clock with time zones, currency converter, measurement converter, calculator and more. With photo navigation, you can download Google™ Panoramio™ pictures via our Garmin Connect™ Photos website and navigate to them. The 205 is compatible with our free Garmin Garage where you can download animated vehicles that show your location on the map. It also comes with Garmin Lock™, an anti-theft feature. Enhance your travel experience with optional plug-in SD cards such as detailed street map data of different regions or countries. nüvi 205W will navigate turn by turn to the destination of your choice.

Speaking about membership, is there any proof to show that we're from HC3?
Yup, we're working on a sticker now, so the special prices only available to those with the sticker.
