One XL IQ vs. 730

[gareth71]

I see from www.best-satnav-deals.co.uk that Amazon are selling the 730 and the new XL IQ Western Europe at more or less the same price. Now, have I misunderstood things a bit, or will they not be selling many of the new XLs at that price?! I was under the impression that the 730 was a more capable unit than the XL, with the ability to do everything that the XL does and more.

What are the differences which set the two models apart? It's likely that once the new XL has had a month or three in which to 'bed in' I'll be looking at swapping my old One v3 for one or other of the above models, so it'd be nice to know what's what!

The 730 is a far more capable device offering mp3 play back, FM Transmitter, Bluetooth for music/ hands free for the phone and iPOD connectivity, oh and it has the SD card slot for future map growth.

The XL-IQ can do none of the above, if these two device are only a few £ apart its a no brainer, if you don't want/ need the extra capability of the 730 just remember that you don't have to use it just because the device can do it - Mike
