|
|
Hi
I'm a GPS virgin! looking for a new GPS to help me in my job.
I'm a service engineer covering the North West of ENGLAND, I use AA Auto Route at present, but I have to plan my route before setting out in the morning.
I'm looking for a good system that will allow me to use the full address or postcodes to plan my route.
I've read a little about TMC, would this be essential or not to avoid traffic problems?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Yours
Malcolm Bennett |

Hi Rgds
No budget restrictions & probably an all in one package, I don't use PDAs at present.
Yours Malcolm |
