Hey,

A few questions about this unit:

1) How old is it? Will the maps (UK) be outdated now? If so, can they be updated free of charge (Even if this is a one off)?

2) Can this device hold ALL of the PocketGPSWorld speed cameras (Fixed and mobile)?

3) Can the device hold TTS (Using the hack described elsewhere) *as well* as those speed cameras listed above?

4) Finally, £50 - Worth it? If not, alternatives?

Cheers.

Hi there.

I have just bought one of these from Halfords, couldnt resist at 49.99

I registered it, and currently downloading a 2.81GB file for FREE from Garmin with 2008 maps.

Not sure about your other questions, although halfords have some cracker deals on the sony units, which i have one.

If you are after a no frills, easy to use sat nav, then for £50 you cant go wrong with the Garmin!

The C5xx series are discontinued - they were superseded by the Nuvi range.

Still a very capable sat nav, and have the SirfSTAR III chipset. Just a bit more chunky than the Nuvi range.

If you're buying it new, as a regular customer, you should either get a unit with up-to-date maps, or should qualify for a free update to the latest maps with Garmin.

For £50, with the traffic module (you said C510T) most certainly. And depending on what's actually on it when you buy it, you may get a map upgrade including all europe.
