Hi
This is a "sequel" to my question posted on 22 June regarding Sat Nav. I am now in a quandary as to what make of Sat Nav to buy - should it be Tom Tom, Garmin, Navman or whatever !! I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure. Any tips/hints would be greatly appreciated.

Hi FBG
When I was looking I was told Tom Tom 'boots up' a lot quicker than Navman. I'd have bought the TT but it doesn't come with a charger you can use at home. I dont have a cig lighter in my car and they didn't have any home chargers in stock so I went for the Navman.
It does take a while to get going but i've been happy with it for occasional use.
I would have preferred the Tom Tom though and the nice man at Halfords was offering it at a lower than published price - worth asking!

ps Be careful when you do get one. I dropped mine from a short height in its protective case. The screen shattered - this is quite common apparently and they charge as much to fix it as a new one. But GPSMidlands will replace one much cheaper!

I've used the NavMan brand since I had it as an add-on to a Compaq iPaq and always liked the service provided. Although there are a lot more 'cool' things you can do with a Tom-Tom (e.g. add voice packs) I think the NavMan for looks, features and clarity has always done me proud.
I currently have a NavMan N20i, the entry model for the new 'NavPix' series. Came with full Europen road-level maps and two updates from NavMan which you can use for Speed Camera updates and things such like.
