Which is better, the 7100 or the new 2100 max?

Garmin way better than this. I love the feature that tell you in which side street your destination address located (left/right).
I heard many complaint about how small the text screen looks in navigon 7100.

Garmin charges for traffic services. Navigon has it free for life on all models. I am not sure how good it is but when you figure in how much more a Garmin with traffic will cost year after year, this might be a better deal.

Anybody used the bluetooth feature on this thing in the car? Does it work well?

sure free live traffic is the advantage of this GPS. but I found myself this feature wasn't helpful enough. Most of the time, the traffic report expired by the time get into your screen. or in another word, you can't trust the report. Several times happened when the traffic said 'heavy' and I did not choose to detour, I found there were no traffic at all. Perhaps if it is 30 minutes delay or more might be useful.
Also only useful when you driving in the big city area.
