The Garmin nuvi 680 lacks some of the battery draining features the more expensive Garmin models have (Remote Control, XM Navtraffic, “Where Am I”, “Multi-Destination Routing”, Routes, Speech Recognition, Car locator, Qwerty or ABC keyboard), but it has the most important feature, MSN Direct Receiver Cable (list $149) and a 3 month membership to MSN Direct. After the trial, sign up for the MSN Direct Service ($49.95 year or $129.95 life time). MSN Direct gives you access to gas prices near you, and thousands of other stations. Additional information on MSN Direct can be found Here. List of other models capable of viewing Fuel Prices Here.
