Becker/Harmon Traffic Pro anyone?
 
Does anyone on this board happen to have either a Becker Traffic Pro or a Harmon Kardon Traffic Pro? If so what are your expierences with it? Pros,cons.

I have the HK TrafficPro. I like it, but don't use it that much. It's nice because it looks factory (make sure to get one that is amber backlit if you want to maintain the factory look). It was very easy to install. For only 1 din, the display performs well, it's dot matrix. It's relatively easy to see and use. There are some good features with POI's (points of interest like restaurants, etc), saving destinations, and a few others. Overall it works very well and has definetly come in handy. The negatives are that it only holds 8mb of data, so if you use it a lot for longer trips, you will have to put in the maps cd frequently - not an issue if you have a cd-changer. Also, you have to know the city of the address or location you input into it. If you can get one for in the $200 range, I'd say go for it, otherwise you are probably better off buying a standalone one that you can from garmin or tomtom.

HTH,
