I bought a navman PiN 570 when they were on offer a while back, and as my first sat nav I've found it fantastic. Plus as a PDA i can use tom tom
(though never have), memory map etc. So Navman get my vote, plus I think they've just upgraded their maps.
Regards
Matt

Not locost but a mio c710.
Does cameras but also free traffic updates. Helps avoid jams.
With tom tom you need a subscription plus wap on a blue tooth mobile phone for the traffic updates.

the difference between tomtom1 and tomtom3 is quite subtle. Anyone know exactly what it is? Something like different locations stored etc. Having used
a tt3 id be disappointed if i got a t1 and realised it was missing key features.
However, i was very happy with the tomtom 3 i borrowed. Without having tried a few systems its impossible to compare them really, you would always be
impressed with them if you hadnt tried a better one. 
Im all for maps, never really have a problem, but sometime when im in other cities i need to get from one place to another by the best route, time is
money. If i waste ten minutes by not picking the most efficient route it costs me. There no point me learning every city in yorkshire and id probably
never beat a good satnav anyway!
