Interesting review, looks like a nice unit.However for the gadget types here, I wouldn't hold my breadth for the european version of the Ecoroute HD unit which connects to the car for realtime info.I bought my 1690 with the understanding that the adapter would be on the market within a few months, which I thought was reasonable.In May 2010, Garmin replied to my email that it would be available around end of second quarter of 2010 - which I thought was on the outer limits of "reasonable" as the unit was announced in mid 2009, but hope springs eternal, especially as the US version was already on the market. It is now nearly end of 4th quarter 2010 and I have just got a reply to another email a few days ago that the european version is still undergoing tests.I wonder what the legal position is for people who purchased the 1690 hoping for the adapter in a "reasonable" time (what is "reasonable").Sorry if I have changed the focus of the subject slightly, but I think purchasers of the 3790 who are interested in the Ecoroute HD unit should keep this in mind.CDK
