Can anyone recommend a new TomTom that can use the PocketGPS database?
I may retire my GO300 and my Start cannot use the database.
Ideally under £100 but would consider upto £150 _________________ Beam Me Up Scotty This Planet Sucks!!!! |

Seriously, if you want/need Live Traffic (at a price) then go for a 540/550/740/750/940/950 but otherwise why not a good old/reliable 520/530/720/730/920/930 all cheap as chips on eBay. The main difference between a 5**/7**/9** is internal memory but seeing as they all take an SD or MicroSD card you may as well go for a 5** |

If you must have TT then get a second hand one from Ebay as JB says. None of the recent ones do proximity warnings for user POIs, so the PGPSW database is only a little more use than tits on a fish. |
