Looking at either the

Garmin 760t - £205.51
Buy Garmin Nuvi 760 (760T) Reviews

OR

TomTom GO 530 - £220.90
Buy TomTom GO 530T - RDS Traffic Reviews

Features I want
1) Euro Maps - Only Garmin has this
2) Bluetooth - Both have this
3) Traffic - Both have this
4) Speed Cameras - Both have, not sure which is best though?

Now even though the Garmin has the map's and is cheaper, I am liking the idea of the new TomTom IQ Route, but more importantly the Advance Lane Guidance. TomTom also has the idea of being able to put in an address by voice, however not sure how much I would use these. I would also not get the Europe Maps with TomTom but think I could get them cheap enough?

Both come in at slightly more than i want as I would like to spend sub £200 really, but if I shop around that might be possible. Both looks nice and slim which is good and seem good.

Help me decide, and please give reasons why...

Thanks

It really is down to personal taste you need to try them out and see which you are most comfortable with!! both will do the job okay

Some swear by Garmin and some by Tomtom I myself looked at the Garmin and because I had a Tomtom before felt I would not adapt to the Garmin.
Just a point the Tomtom maps are upgradeable and you should be able to purchase a Europe map for your device !!

Regarding speed cameras it is a no contest the Pocketgps speed camera database is so much better
