The Nuvi 550

As soon as I got around to fiddling with the new Garmin, I noted some things I like. Besides all the regular GPS bells and whistles from my Tomtom, this one is waterproof, has sd card slot, can save a track log, and I have already customized to have a motorbike icon instead of a car. ;)

Did you choose the 550 over the 500 because of the maps? NA vs lower 48? Was there any price difference? I'm also curious if you can display more than 2 data points on the map screen? I have an older SP 2610 that I can display time, speed, altitude and reception status. I'm looking to replace my 2610 with the nuvi 500, nuvi 550 or zumo 220 (least likely do to price) and would really like to have at least 3 data points displayed.
