i bought a garmin nuvi 350 last month. went on 2 long trips, with several large cities. superb, superb
product. i can think of the ipod as the only piece of tech i bought in the last 4-5 years as in the same league.

I can recommend the road angel sat nav 7000.........great sat nav with speed camera detectors built in..........used it for around the last 3 months or so and works very well on both counts. Cost around £300 mark

Yeah pretty cool Biggie.........even better than the road angel radar detector unit I had.........This unit for example checks all data froma networked source that tells it where speed camera vans are likely to be in advance ( these babies use laser rifles to detect your speed from up to a mile or more away, once they target your vehicle you a split second to react.then bam...........major fine)
This unit lets you know a mile or so beforehand that they will likely be at that site.........up to you if you wanna risk it or not.........lol
Gatsos ( fixed cameras) lets you know approx 1000m in advance......plus about average speed cameras etc etc..........as well as a really good nav unit built in too.
Love it and would never be without it

Lol..........you'd better believe it...........doin maybe 110 - 120 other day and then ( bleep bleep bleep).........**** slowed down to 70mph........motorway speed, an sure enough about a mile further up, there's the van, side window slid open, laser rifle scanning.........gave him a cheeky little wave as I breezed past at 70 then floored it again after I was past.

Not to bust your chops, but in my country 1000m is called 1km! LOL!! Sweet device, and good job on speeding up again after you past the ****er! Many of the states here in the US ban radar detectors!

Default Garmin All the Way

I love my Garmin. It has never let me down. The only issue, is, where do I hide the power cord? I just hate having it climbing all over my dash. Has anyone permantly installed a power supply for their GPS?
