Now that's funny. Even in Czech.

Interesting how two of the devices are working so closely together that the voices sound like a stadium echo effect.

This sort of thing I like. I think he's almost as much of a gadget freak as me, although I though he was a bit weak as he didn't have a few ipods on the go as well. Very Happy

I imagine a few GPSs on his rear window too, for when he's reversing Laughing

Very funny, but how the heck does he see where he's going or spot those pesky pedestrians?

At night, it must be a better show than Blackpool illuminations!! Laughing

I'm sure that, nice bloke that he is, even 999tommo might have something to say about this guy's forward vision being impaired Wink

No no - I mean I want one and one and one that all works, ooo aarr. Laughing

My goodness it does take time to get through to you people!!

And for the less bright amongst you, I mean I want several cars full of several satnav devices (but without the cars) - clear enough?

Judging by how far some motorists look in front of them, they would be aswell having a screen full of toys. If they don't bother looking out of their screen, they would at least be putting it to some use. Wink

Two months ago I had three - and like a total idiot, I let my GO700 go (to Vera for a very small sum for her son in law). I regretted it as soon as I agreed to do it, but I'm nothing if not a man of my word. Shame really, I wish I hadn't let it go, best device I ever had (after the GO300 which I should never have sold to my mate, which was THE best device I ever had. He still doesn't know where the reset button is!).
