|
|
Hi
My budget is £300 and I want to get a GPS system that I can use in the car, any suggestions?
Garmin have their range of handheld devices but do Navman do anything?
Thanks
Rob |

EasyDevices have the Medion MDPNA150 on sepcial offer at the moment for £299. I've just finished writing up the review which is positive.
The full review will be published shortly. _________________ Darren Griffin |

£299 is without VAT. Its £351.33 with VAT.
You can get the Mitac Mio168 with Tomtom Naviagtor 3, 256Mb SD card and car mount for £324.95 incl VAT from globalpositioningsystems. Is this not a better buy as I am thinking of this myself

Yes! Unless you are after a PND specifically. The benefit of these is that you can recover fom a fuly discharged battery by simply applying power and switching ON, you can't do this with a PocketPC.
But given the addition of VAT the Mio168 bundle would be better value so long as you realise it's a PocketPC not a PND. _________________ Darren Griffin |
