GPS accuracy greatly improved when a new feature called WAAS (wide area agumentation system) was built in. It is used with GPS systems in the ground to make accuracy better by sending accuracy to a main station, which is then routed to your GPS.
An in-dash gps system would be better in a car. Handheld gps systems seem to generally have smaller screens and are made specifically for outdoor use. An in-dash gps is designed for in car use.
Garmin GPS is better in my opinion, as the features are better and the maps are far more accurate than the Magellan GPS. Don't get me wrong, it's very good but I recommend Garmin.
According to most reviews and ratings by customers and experts, a GPS receiver is a better buy than a GPS cradle. This is true not only for quality but for the price difference as well.
Magellan GPS units are indeed made by the USA. They are, in fact, GPS systems made by the US government in the USA so Magellans are 100 percent USA GPS units.
Customers say that the easier to use and better customer service go to the Garmin gps while the Raymarine gps has the better radar. Other than these differences they are very similar.

Yes, camping GPS work better in the woods. They are built to penetrate tree-coverage and other electronic noise to pinpoint your location, even in very remote areas.

Most GPS units differ based on the addition features they have such as the ability to play mp3's or access the web. At the most basic level, a hand held GPS is no better or worse than other models for providing your location.
