Has anyone got their hands on a Lucca Travelpilot 5.3 yet?

[pnewbery]

I'm Considering sat nav options for my impending brand new motor home (Adria Vision) which comes fitted with a Blaupunkt San Remo radio. I looked this up on the Blaupunkt site and found it to be a pretty bottom of the range model and was wondering what it could be upgraded to.

I stumbled across the Nashville DAB radio and was interested to see that it can be linked up to their new Lucca TravelPilot 5.3 (http://www.bluespot.co.uk/stock/nav_1.asp) and was wondering if it would be a good move. Linking the two means you can have the voice instructions coming through the radio system

The specs of the 5.3 seem to cover most of the negative aspects of the posts on this site re the earlier versions, particularly with reference to uploading POIs. Can't tell if the post code facilities are any better though. (Specs do say "Full postcode destination input")

Has anyone got their hands on the 5.3? How does it stack up?

I currently use a PDA with CoPilot Live V6 V7 upgrade works fine as a GPS, but kills Wi-fi & Activesync comms. If I can get that working correctly, maybe I should stick with the cheap and cheerful San Remo radio and port the PDA Sat Nav device between car and motor home.

Any thoughts? Any experiences with the DAB radio?
