well i figured out how to play the video on the 5140. And yes I am serious that the 5140 is better. Boot up is a lot faster. Ipod connection never disconnect. I remembered about twice a week, when I turn on the car in the morning, the Ipod would never connect to the unit, I'd have to disconnect and reconnect it again for it to work. Also, the video would never play when you start it on F700, it would take about 2-3 minutes to play, on the 5140, it plays instantly.

The Garmin maps GUI might not looks as pretty as the iGo map on the F700 but the navigation functionality is pretty much spot on and always correct.
