Spring 2009 I got one of these with the StreetAtlas 2009 software in a $50 bundle.
I think that was less than I paid for StreetAtlas 2008.
I mistakenly thought I would be able to use the street data with my DeLorme PN40.
As the street level data appears far more accurate than the Topo 7 data, I was disappointed to find that I cannot transfer SA data into the PN40.
So now I have another toy (the LT40) to play with on road trips when I have hauled along the laptop.
I "need" a nice new netbook for use in my very small car with my GPS receivers. I am currently eying the HP 2140 but I am waiting to see what they roll out in April/May -- a new model is due.

No, I don't have a Nuvi or a TomTom.
Generally though I find that the routing and navigation software on the Garmin ETrex Vista HCX is quite good in the car when I really just need to get somewhere.
