 | Navigon 7100 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator
Buy new: $269.95 / Used from: $209.25 I selected the Navigon 7100 because it's the latest cool navigation system. Personally, I use a Garmin Nuvi 680 with MSN content. There's nothing worst than landing in an unfamiliar location with a hand full of paper directions. The rental companies offer navigation at $20 a day. Trust me, you'll save money and get to your destination with minimal frustration.

 | Kindle: Amazon's Wireless Reading Device
Buy new: $359.00 I carry around 50 books, important documents, and the New York Time. The darn thing attracts a crowd, but the Kindle has saved my back from my typical 2 to 3 books I read while I'm on the road.
Note: I get The York Times delivered where ever Sprint covers. At $15 a month, it's a bargin compared to $4 a week for just the weekend edition.

 | Bose® QuietComfort® 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling® Headphones
Buy new: $349.00 / Used from: $225.00 You see them on airplanes. Have you heard the quality? I almost didn't include this in my list. It's not fair to recommend something you will obsess about until you own them. Not only do these headphone cancel out the roar of the engines, but the quality of the music dampens the sound of kids and other loud noises.
