Hi,

I've had a Novus Piccolo for a few years now and found it very good for my needs; however they seemed to of stopped the updates for it (and all Novus devices), looking at the code numbers on there updates page the last update were in January 2011.

Does anyone know if the Novus Piccolo is still being updated?

If not what other small plug-in GPS device would you recommend, I like the sound of the Snooper 3Zero, but I had a Snooper many years ago (15yrs+ ago) and I wasn't impressed, lots of false reading and warned you very late....so has Snooper improved over the years?

Thanks

I decommissioned my TalexLite in favour of a Garmin 2200 and put the database from here onto it.

being as I already have a built in SatNav I just wanted the smallest screen available to give me suitable warnings.

At least I know I have up to date cameras.

I've got a new car on order and I think I'll be able to download the PGPSW DB onto the Sat Nav system, but I liked the Piccolo because it's always pluged in and it just tell me.....


Anyway, after a bit of searching I've found that there are still update but they have changed there website address (without any link on the old one....Mmmm)

But I'd still like to hear people's opinions on the Snooper 3Zero


Cheers

Once my Talex subscription expired I started using the Novus database for a while. I soon realised how accurate is was, or wasn't, when it failed to warn of 2 fixed cameras in Woking that had been there for well over 12 months.

I soon realised that Talex/Novus had to go as it didn't seem very accurate to me.
