Sat Nav - Xmas

Tysonator · 20-11-2007, 20:19

Hi,

I am hoping to buy the wife a Sat nav for Xams, as she gets lost while driving very easily !

So I am not sure what Sat Nav to get her. I was hoping to get one theat incorparates western Europe as we go on hoilday alot in Europe.

For work I use a PDA that has Co Pilot installed on it. Though the wife really needs one of her own.

Any ideas which ones would be suitable please

Have a look around halfords around or after xmas, there are normally deals going on with sat-nav every year. Last year it was 30-40% off

The spotty kid there probably won't know half as much as a little bit of decent internet researching...

LeperousDust,

Many thanks

http://www.yournav.com/ - Covers the latest x20 units,and Navicore 7, which looks pretty good, can't wait for the mobile version of that.
http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/item-menu.php?idSubCat=11 Covers all manor of GPS hardware, although i think it's a little outdated now days. Still it has an in depth x10 review which you can pick up second hand pretty cheap now, and theyre more than capable.

There another two, tbh just google as long as you search for the right things you will find what your looking for. The above took me about 5 minutes...
