Good deal Comms hopefully you will find something you will like.
Bottom line I don't think you could go wrong with any of the 3 garmins, it all depends on your requirements.
As for the Montana, I love my Montana, they originally pushed the hardware out before the software was ready. We are at 3.60 REV and I have contributed to one of the revisions. Garmin has been really great with any questions or problems I have had with in 16 hours max. Usually in under 8 hours most of the time. I had bought the unit with Lifetime US and EU maps. There is a cradle that you can buy for the car that gives the voice commands really loud.

I have noticed that with my Dakota as well. Too bad you are so far out, I would show it to you if I wasn't so far out.
