No probs. It's first proper outing will be this evening. I'm going out for a drink and i'm wondering if it'll fit in my handbag so I can find my way home! Laughing No folks i'm not drinking and driving.

Will probably post again if I cannot fathom my way round the speed camera issue. Does the ickle voice announce them as something obvious when approaching?

Hi cantgetlost no offence taken. Yes I did download the speed camera and POI bits n bobs but it doesn't recognise the speed camera near to where I live. I took it for a proper test last night and I was indeed bonged. Norty me going too fast. Laughing

It said in point 6 miles, when infact it was only about 1 mile in distance...?

It didn't say 0.6 miles it said 6 miles. But as earlier suggested it could have been a glitch. It hasn't confussed itself since..
