At the very least business nav does not have maps, just arrows for direction. Prof nav has maps and arrows. Not sure if business includes traffic info and avoidance. Business nav just gets you the small screen whilst prof nav gets you the wide screen.

I am sure others will be able to give you the full list.

Prof. NAV: comes with a larger screen, and shows the route on a map and with arrows.

Bus NAV: only arrows, small screen...

Business navigation does receives traffic info and does calculate traffic avoidance.
It just does not have maps as opposed to profi navi.

Had experience with both systems! My first bus nav didn't have traffic alerts but was very accurate with directions and at least 5 times quicker to use. It could calulate say a 100 mile route within about 5 seconds. The downside with bus nav is that you are at the hands of the system as there are no maps to assist you. Pro nav allows you to scroll the map and pinpoint a destination, also the perspective view provides a great aid whilst navigating through city centres etc. For pure navigation both do the same job, pro nav just does it with a tad more style. I find pro nav - I drive painfully slow but it is worth the extra cash.
