I like my tomtom 510.........but a £4 upgrade on a Swindon A2Z knows a lot more on new build streets than my tomtom knows

Manchester AtoZ on my pda, best of both worlds as it links up to gps too.

I got a Tom Tom before we went to Italy this summer. Only thing that lets it down is the rubbish PC software that just gives you a mini tom tom "emulator" on the screen to plan routes, etc. May as well struggle on the unit itself for all the help it is. It really wasn't good for planning a whole holiday and I ended up wishing I'd taken my PocketPC with CoPilot on and stomached the instability.

But.. for just finding postcodes and navigating around the UK it's great. Pocket PC has always discharged its batteries when I want to use it, which means re-installing and registering the software again. Just reaching for the map book is less hassle. The TomTom is way better for that. No cables to lose, no hassle with the underlying OS bleating at you, because it can't see your bluetooth GPS anymore, just switch on, post code in and off you go.

Yes, I use my (PDA based) one every day if in the MV6 (no cradle set up in tractor), though usually with directions turned off, so I just get the camera warnings...
