This looks a lot like TrafCam but updates using GPRS. And it uses the Road Angel database.

Cheap too.

If you included a link, I can't find it!

Interesting, if you didn't already have a GPS app and had no need for one, but wanted camera warnings. £5 seems very aggressively priced! Is there an GPSGate type app, to share a GPS signal, for Smartphones?

At £78 a year, the subscription is 4 times more expensive that the www.pocketgpsworld.com database. More so for lifetime subscription holders.

It doesn't say which month!

How does the quality of the Road Angel database compare to ours?

Oops. sorry.

www.roadangelmobile.co.uk

One would assume end of the month to mean the end of this month.

Hardly cheap. £5 initial fee, £1.50 per week to use. I make that £83 in the first year, plus GPRS charges. We haven't done a direct download for database updates because we've had very little demand for it, but it's on my "to do" list as are a lot of other features.

Has anyone tried it yet?

How does it handle Specs? Just a warning or average speed calculation?

Is there any Non-GPRS way to download the update? Not to avoid paying roadangelmobile.co.uk, purely to avoid the GPRS charges?

If it is like the normal roadangel then it only warns if you exceed the posted speed limit in-between the cameras. No averaging is done.
