What standalone Navigation

[digitalspree]

hi

i am looking to buy a sat nav for under £250, as u all know the market is full of many different brands and types of sat nav. i haven't found any reliable reviews/comparison between these sat nav's. the features i am interested in a sat nav are its compatiblity with internet downloads and its performance but surely there are more important features to discover through this thread.

I have a tomtom ONE, bought for £219 and I personally love the TomTom range. I have about 50 voices installed and it's so easy to put on your own Points of Interest and Speed Camera Database which tells me (for example)

"Warning! gatso ahead... speed limit 30 Miles Per Hour"

Good luck in making your choice

I have the mio C320 and it's excellent.

It's very useful to have a sat nav based on the windows CE system. Then you can run other software on it.

when buying a satnav.. what you need to see if it gives you iTMC, post code search and more importantly is there support available for it.. map update etc.

good luck
