What GPS for under £300

Hi

My budget is £300 and I want to get a GPS system that I can use in the car, any suggestions?

Garmin have their range of handheld devices but do Navman do anything?

Thanks

Rob

EasyDevices have the Medion MDPNA150 on sepcial offer at the moment for £299. I've just finished writing up the review which is positive.

The full review will be published shortly.

£299 is without VAT. Its £351.33 with VAT.

You can get the Mitac Mio168 with Tomtom Naviagtor 3, 256Mb SD card and car mount for £324.95 incl VAT from globalpositioningsystems. Is this not a better buy as I am thinking of this myself

Yes! Unless you are after a PND specifically. The benefit of these is that you can recover fom a fuly discharged battery by simply applying power and switching ON, you can't do this with a PocketPC.

But given the addition of VAT the Mio168 bundle would be better value so long as you realise it's a PocketPC not a PND.
