As the subject say's I cant find a GPS device that will do the following

1st, Must be a GPS device that can navigate from point A to point B ( there are lots of them around) some very good

2nd, Must be able to cornet to the pocketgpsworld data base like the app CamerAlert (by pocketgpsworld warns you if database is out of date)

3rd must be able to give good information on any traffic on your way from point A to B something like WAZE that you can also pass information on.

4th, Must have a HD Camera good for insurance company's to see who is to blame, so this must tie in with 1ST gps. something like BlackVue HD (parking mode is fantastic for when you park in town and some *&^%* drive's in to your parked car and drives off with out a note saying even sorry)

5th must have Social network for Tweeter Facebook and so on but see 6th.

6th MUST BE HANDS FREE, all controlled by your voice and commands.

so if any one know where i can find one Rolling Eyes as i think this would be one of the better GPS/Social network/Camera/Traffic devices out there and would only need 1 plug in Laughing let me know

I don't think there's one single device that does that.

To be honest I think you would be better off with separate devices.

A lot of people swear by the RoadHawk camera system.

The best traffic service on a satnav is TomTom's HD traffic (unless you're in Scotland or Wales...)

The best voice-controlled satnav are the newer Garmin nuvi's - you don;t even have to press a button to start the voice command. Newer TomToms do have voice control but you have to press buttons on teh screen to activate it...

At the moment I think there's only certain TomTom models with the twitter/facebook stuff integrated.

So, really, it depends which the MOST important feature(s) of that list are?!

If fully handsfree is the main one then go for Garmin, but then you sacrifice the better traffic info of TomTom's HD Traffic.

If the social media integration is the main extra then you will be better off with the tomtom (not sure which model though!) which would get you the trafic too, BUT you would lose the better voice control that garmin offer

Sorry MaFt, can you add the North East of England to your list. Due possibly to the increase in membership on Waze, I now rely more on Waze to keep me updated on traffic flow. I currently run both my TT950 Live and Waze on IPhone side by side. Are we going to see a separate section for Waze?
