im getting a sat nav unit for my birthday from the better half next week and im still undecided what one to go for

the tom tom 700 looks like my best option so far but ill listen to any advice as i havnt got a clue tbh :D

hi dan - i'm currently reviewing a garmin nuvi - it's very nice, very thin and very portable. also compatible with custom poi's and speed camera database etc.

have a look at one, you might like it's sleek shape as compared to that of the tomtom go 700.

just a thought! and welcome to the site

Hi Danny,

It looks like MaFt beat me to it, but to the forum! ;-)

Regards,

Bo Peep.

As someone who has owned quite a few Nav units, including the Tom Tom, the Nuvi wins on Map Data, Easy of Use, Look of Unit, Clarity of Display, Mapping Algorythm, and of course additional feautes (MP3 Player, Audible Book Player, Picture Viewer, etc.) and - the most important for me after 2 years "in the wilderness" with Navman (no) Updates and (lack of) Technical Support, a good support and upgrade programme

Which ever you decide, Tom Tom or Nuvi, sure you will be happy, but with TomTom due (?) to release new models in the not to distant future (so I hear), why buy an older technology, when you can have the most recent?

(oh, the volume IS better on the TomTom!!!)
