I have the Tom Tom Rider 2. It works great, it will last for about 4 hours or so on a full charge but it came with a Ram mount so I have it connected to 12v. It also came with a bluetooth headset and you can receive calls, if you want, while riding.

Pman,
I have the TomTom 3rd edition. I installed a power connector that I purchased off of E-bay. I wired it into the headlight bucket and tuck the end into the windshield bag when not in use. This allows me to keep my GPS on during longer trips.

Garmin Etrex Legend. It's really hard to geocache with anything that is mounted on the bike.

It's called a map, and if needed, a compass.....................

Garmin Nuvi 760. Even has a sexy female voice with an Autralian accent if the American female voice doesn't do it for ya...  Bluetooth, FM transmitter, blah blah blah...great for the car, but I'm not hearing ANYTHING at 80 MPH with Hard Khrome 3" Straights.
The little leather magnetic tank bag in my sigpic is PERFECT for it, with a clear window in the center, plus holds other stuff.

Pman...good thing is your bike is white and they can see it better if you get lost....except in a snow storm. I have a Garmin 76CX or something. I got it for hunting, purchased a bean bag mount and used it in the cars, boat and truck. I take it and lash it with bungie cord to the risers and around the handle bar and away I go. I can easily remove it if I want it off the bike when I'm parked someplace busy. One of the best things is that runs on 2 AA batteries vs. rechargable and they last 8 hrs +- with the background light off and much longer with the lithium type batteries for electronics. While its the ride, not the destination, it is sometimes nice to get home if you don't have a clue where you are.

Hey, it must be white bike guy time...! I have a Magellin 3100... It has a big adjustable suction cup on it and it goes right on the windshield... (I put a little electrical tape in the stock riser to avoid the possibility of chaffing) I did put an outlet on the bike too, but then again, on long trips... I turn it off between points... And, the software is accessible so I uploaded my own graphics for the utility screens... Here's my timer screen...  and my "select" button
