Hey that's pretty cheap all in all - just want to know more about the software (make sure it's not cr*p) and how detailed it is for britain..

Wonder how good the reciever is too?

Doh!

Mark, you should have asked Dan when we saw him on Sunday. his Pocket PC has a PCMCIA car with GPS reciever on top...smaller, better. The details cool as well and for lonely poeple...it talks!

No, because I don't have a laptop or handheld PC. However I do have a Garmin eTrex Vista and MapSource MetroGuide Europe. The Vista is not cheap, nor is the map package - which is excellent. I also have a window mount for the GPS and a power cable. Lots of fun whilst on holiday up North this summer, particularly when out walking in the middle of nowhere, and its also good for checking speedo accuracy.
