Is there a portable GPS unit out there that also displays a map?

Does anyone know of a GPS unit that, on top of giving driving directions, can display a map of the area?



It would be great if the maps had street names and if I have a GPS coordinate, allow me to input that then find the location . Essentially, I am looking for a self contained device with the functionality of google maps, with a large screen, and has no need for a cell connection.



Any Ideas??Is there a portable GPS unit out there that also displays a map?
GPS receivers come in a variety of formats, from devices integrated into cars, phones, and watches, to dedicated devices such as those shown here from manufacturers Trimble, Garmin and Leica. But, I am using Garemin GPS- device manufactured by Agritura,Italy %26amp; find it to be very useful device for tracking %26amp; navigation Purpose.

The Garmin Nuvi does essentially that just use the zoom out feature and it will zoom out all the way and show the whole USA, just touch the screen where you want to see and zoom back in. It will also map you there. The Nuvi 5000 has a 5.2 in. screen.Is there a portable GPS unit out there that also displays a map?
Most driving directions GPS systems can do that.

They already have a map built in in order to give you directions, most of them allow you the option of just looking at the maps.
