Yup, I lent it to a friend who left it hooked up on her dashboard, smash n
grab.

I like the small units that can detach and take with you for that reason
alone.

Theft of portable car GPS units is a big problem. I had my car broken
into shortly after I got the Garmin. The thief spotted the dash mount,
and assumed I had stowed the GPS unit in the glove box. Actually it was
one block away, where I was in a restaurant, with the GPS in my pocket.
My insurance wound up footing the bill for almost $1000 in damage that
was done during the break-in. Since then I've learned to use a less
conspicuous dash mount, and not to park in bad neighborhoods.  :-(
