Right here, right now, which one?
Any recommendations, sale offers anywhere? With my recent experience of online buying I would like to go to a shop and hand the readies over and walk
away with the bit in me hand.
I've managed without one for 40+ years but I want one now One that tells me how to get there, how fast, simple to use and not too

Thanks,
Steve
whatever one you go for, if you're look at spending over £150, make sure you get one with a lifetime TMC subscription.

Navman all the way for me - and I am probably the most 'navigationally challenged' person on the planet!
My next upgrade will definitely have the live traffic module - very handy when you need it most.

road Angel 7000
Reason why I followed it was the fact that I was in a city which was unfamiliar. Which was the reason behind using the sat nav. Although why I
followed it is not the point.
The point being that when it comes to the crunch the road angel cannot be relied on to reliably & quickly get you from A to B

I had a bluemedia sat nav which was ok. But it sent me the wrong way too many times. So i sold it.
I got a PDA and downloaded tomtom 6 (legally of course). Brilliant piece of kit. My mate aquired me a pda, it cost me 30 quid for a gps reciever
cradle and car charger. If i get fed up with tom tom ill get a different piece of software to try so your not limited to one thing.
Ipaq PDA's are cheap on ebay with sat nav stuff included.

Zil some of the addresses we visit are like beirut and kabul .
Tom tom for me use it for all our call outs better than map reading and navigating whilst driving.
