The Garmin that I had did all of that. It always popped the speed limit within 15 meters of the sign. If I hadn't been driving 100mph it probably would have popped up right at the sign. It also alerted me well in advance of road construction, accidents, and even a traffic jam caused by a broken down semi. My brother (a programmer) looked over the Garmin that I was using and said that it seemed to be the identical software package as the TomTom that he used. I had a pretty normal U.S. English female voice on mine that I didn't mind (there were a lot of choices). Mine honestly knew when I was pulled over 15 feet off the autobahn.It will even show you the speed limits on the road you're on there and your travelling speed will flash red when you're speeding. On my last trip, it even had the reduced speed limit of a construction area where they were repairing a bridge overpass. Doesn't do that in the US yet but based on the updates I've seen over the last year alone, it's taking over.
Slick, mine will start recalculating within the first hundred feet of making a wrong turn and has an updated route within about 30 seconds.
