I got the mrs the new sony one for crimbo... that tells you when you are approaching speed camera's, even mobile one...its great

Tom Tom one. Bloody brilliant, tells ya where speed cams are and what speed you should be doing and you can put silly voices on it like john cleese, cheeres you up on long journeys. Oh and it is small enough to put in your pocket, and will get you out of a field at night when you have lost your direction .

 

I get lost in a super store.....but since i got my sat nav....the world is my oyster, if i can use it anyone can.

Yeah- must be simple to use, if lurcherbitch can manage not to break it!!!!!

Must say though, that the ability to get out of a field at night is inversely proportional to the quantity of alcohol consumed!!

 

Seriously, seems a good bit of kit from what i've been told!

i've got a tom tom one with the speed cameras, and all the celebrity voices, i prefer the one because its not as bulky as the other models and fits in the pocket nicely

 

i've also got a tom tom 500 that works abroad, fully loaded, but a little bulky for the pocket, i can pair it to my phone and ring out and recieve calls on it aswell without touching the phone, very handy with the new laws concerning using the phone whilst driving

 

i used to have a nav man but found it to be absolutely crap

Tom tom one - Bostin bit of kit, you can use it while driving or on foot. Simple to use and cheep too. Mine cost me £170 from Halfrauds about a year ago.

Why two Johnny, in case you lose one can you use the other to help you find it
