I know that probably you've done lots of research, but have you considered the nuvi 360?

I have the 550 and it works like a charm...it has the traffic report thing included in the box, which I don't believe the TomTom does. It has great features, built in bluetooth, can play music, and has been very accurate in terms of giving directions and predicting arrival time.

Go for the garmin. I have the Nuvi 350, and it works great. It will find satellites while inside the house.
