TomTom nicked - what to buy next

[+Organised Chaos]

I used to use a TomTom One for car navigation - with the POIs loaded on from GSAK. That broke and I moved over to a PcoketPC running the TomTom software - that was OK - but not quite so good - often not showing some of the POIs if they were close to other POIs etc.

 

This has now been nicked (Was on it's last legs anyway) so I am looking for a cheapish (sub £100) satnav that will handle POIs from GSAK well. An experiance? I did try a navman once, withoit much sucess.

 

We used a blackberry or ETrex when walking. This is really for car use to find caches as we pass or to plan a route.

I use a TomTom XL. Upgraded from a Go300

(Maybe worth looking at GSAK at Big Wolf's macro, or is that the one you use?)

 

I've seen most makes used for car navigation.

TomTom is usually the preferred choice...

If you ever enter caches in manually using their coordinates make sure you get a Tomtom with a full menu, the simple menu does not allow this, as I found out to my detriment:( You need to check the Tomtom website and look for units with the full menu, from memory the simple menu is not mentioned only the full.

 

There is a good price & feature comparision website here for all sat navs: http://www.satnav-discounts.co.uk/tomtom-go/tomtom-xl2-prices.htm

I've a great sat-nav built in. Ok that's not helpful I know but I still get my >5 year old TomTom out for POI from GSAK to use when driving.
