Anyone know much about Sat Nav systems?
Does the brand really make much difference? I’d only really ever heard of TomTom, but looking today there’s loads about and they all range in price so much.
Depends where you live, in the UK it seems that tomtom is the best one due to its maps, however in the states the garmin unit appears to have the lead again due to the quality of the mapping.
Sucks For Blow is right, here in the states.. Garmin is the way to go… Tomtom seems to be the better choice in the UK. It also depends on the model your going to buy.. cheap or expensive?
I got it on my phone too, its a nokia n95 which does the job, its got heaps of maps all over the world except for really shitty rural places but its a phone so wouldnt be as good as the proper ones.
i gots an N95 and Garmin… cant really fault either, but for speed and accuracy have to say Garmin all the way…
oh and one quick thing thats fucking awesome on the Garmin (was the deal sealer for me in Halfords) is the speed camera detector/alert ... dont think tomtom has this function?... it depicts all speed cams, stationary or mobile police fuckas that sit/travel… thats fucking priceless in my books… saved me so much £££ when travelling in london, so the unit has paid for itself
all i gotta do now is remember to pay the fuckin congestion charge
