We'd need to know more about what you plan to use it for - driving only? walking? there are different models depending on what you plan to do.

Hi and thank you for your answer!
I like if possible to use it both for driving, the most, and walking.
I will stay the next 5 years in Denmark. I don’t know the roads and I don’t speck the Danish language yet so I like to have also the menu in English
Thank you

I'm not sure how the international maps work nor how different versions are marketed for different regions. If you are mostly driving it's a matter of how much do you want to pay and what features do you want. Traffic, for example, tends to be available only in limited areas. The car units tend to not have a long battery life - they are designed to be hooked up to power source when in the car, so when on foot, battery life is not as good. I have 2 garmins, a nuvi 205W and a gpsmap 60Cx, one for driving and one for on foot.

Perhaps other forum members will chime in.
