Just wondering - which of the Garmin models have a slot that allows you to add a microSD (or SD) card?

I'm planning a trip to Europe (Spain), and I'm thinking it might be nice to bring our own GPS with add-on maps.

I know the 1450 had an SD card slot.

I think all Garmins have a memory card slot. If not, you can still download whatever maps you want to the unit- or to 'MyGarmin' on the computer that holds your map updates.

I have seen in some instances that it's less expensive to get a second GPS pre-loaded with European maps than to buy the map or map card for the one I have at home.

As we have all seen, GPS prices are dropping so fast that they have simply become a commodity. I don't see this changing anytime soon.
