For my money, a dash mounted GPS is a much better deal than a built-in. For $700 you can get a high-end Garmin that has better features, better maps, cheaper map updates, and can be moved between vehicles.
Yes I am aware of this being a Garmin user for the past several years but having a GPS unit stuck on your windshield is IMO a great way to have your car broken in to.
I really prefer to have something in dash for the convenience factor with out wires hanging down from a windshield mounted unit.
Even the residual suction mark is a signal to potential thieves that there is something valuable in you car
