The list seems endless, but which is the best all rounder. I'm looking for software thats reliable(not too many dead ends) supplies additional country maps at a reasonable price, and is compatible with additional software add ons.
Can anyone advise? |

If there were one "the best all rounder" then we would not have such a long list to choose from.
Your list of requirements is conflicting. Looks like TomTom 3 (not the new version) is closest to what you want. _________________ Lutz

Many thanks for your reply Lutz. I wouldn't say my list is conflicting, a lot to ask maybe, but not conflicting. It does appear that Tom Tom is the one to go for but could you elaborate on Tom Tom 3's merits, as opposed to the latest. |

You call this non-conflicting? ;-) _________________ Lutz

Alix, thanks for your reply, it never even occured to me that that hp pack was a trimmed down version of tom tom.To be honest I never really fancied it just based upon what it looked(cheap) like!
How about buying maps for abroad, how does tt compare price wise with say, co pilot(I saw you have that too in a previous post)? |
