Hi all,

I have a TT910 which might be going soon.
However I am interested in the Garmin range as they seem to be well regarded.
I have had a look on this forum but am a bit confused, so here's hoping for some help.

I noted in one thread that the 7xx range are more advanced than the 2xx and more so than the 1xxx.

I had a brief look in Halfords as they have the 1390 and 1490 models which look quite good. Are these better than say the 765?

Mine main thrust is whether I should look away from Tom Tom and get a Garmin.

the main features that I require are:
updating speed cameras
Bluetooth for the mobile

I believe both the 1490 and 765 fits the bill.

The other question is about the 1490 Lifetime traffic. It says on the tin that you dont need any anything else for it to work. Is that correct? I imagine its down to the reception you get as to how effective it is.

Final clarification. The Halfords chap said that the 1490 doesnt offer alternative route, which is what my TT910 and the new TT range do. I looked on the Garmin site and it says it does.

Apologies for the long email.

Andy
