Probably this coming week. Anyone know of any red hot deals out there? I am looking for bluetooth and larger screen if possible.

Thanks guys (The cpc deal has closed now) Sad

Thanks.

Simon

Why Bluetooth? If it's for phone, look before you leap as it has been getting some pretty poor reception from some members here.

Consider the XL LIVE IQ Routes, UK&ROI, from Halfords - £150. Best device I've bought these last four years.

Have to say I hate the Easyport mount on the XL.
The sucker is fine (it's based on the one used on the recent Go models and has a tightening ring) but I'm forever pulling the XL off it and then struggle to get it back on. The hoop that goes round the speaker on the back just feels naff to me.

Other then that, the XL is a great device.

I'd also look at a Go x40 model

Hook or seat the bottom rim into the bottom of the ring, then press the top in. Reverse to remove. My only gripe is the flaming fiddly mini usb connector which buries itself in the device and I spend ages trying to disconnect it.

"Naff' is not a term we're acquainted with in North America but if it is equivalent to 'crappy', I agree! Laughing

It's an acronym for North American (guess what?). Joker

Thanks, Andy......

Yeah, that'd describe the mount. See, even Princess Anne agrees......

Thanks so much for letting me know. was it because the vat rate changed so old link didn't work??? Checked elsewhere, best I can find it for £168, cracking deal.

Thank you.
