+1 on the Vista hcx (Don't scrimp and get the legend. No compass. The difference is that you will have to be moving in order for your maps to point in the proper direction.)
I also came to the exact same conclusion regarding the Delorme. I was so pumped when I first heard about it, but the fact is, the cons of the unit itself outweigh the pros of the maps (for my current purpose).
Thing with City navigator, although it has served me well, I am a little bummed that the Wendy’s, which has been there for over 20 years, nor my LBS (15+ years) is on there.
I wonder if it is all possible to load the basic missing POI's. I imagine it would take way way too much time cross referencing and what have you.
