i3 and C3xx not the same.

[gcb]

Sunday I had my old I3 and C310 in the car and decided to use them both for comparison.

The I3 has a neat feature of marking a POI by press and hold the wheel and its reall y easy to pan out and in by flicking wheel the but the C310 is superior in all other respects.

OK you can read the blurb and say of course the I3 is cheeper but oddly the documented diferences with a C3xx aren't really worth anything apart from the bigger screen. I dont care about the touch screen infact its shinier and harder to see so I should prefer the I3 but no the diferences that really make it for me are the ones you only see when you use the thing:

The C3xx is so much faster at calculating a route which is important when you go through a modified junction or pull in for petrol, it doesnt get locked in a recalculating loop like the I3.
THe C3xx calculates better routes! Why I have no Idea?
The C3xx is better at finding and holding a satalite signal.
The C310 doesnt crash.

you pays your money etc etc etc...

Your post contradicts itself. You say the C3xx isn't better apart from the touch screen and then go on to say its faster at calculating routes, calculates better routes, is better at holding on to a signal and doesn't crash!
