I bought one of these on Friday on a whim, from Argos for £169 less £10 voucher for spending over £100.
Absolutely superb. In my forfour I have the suction mount stuck to the radio display screen, so the small screen isnt an issue that it may be if it was on the windscreen. I managed to get one with the latest mapping software (v8) and downloaded the latest software update from www.pocketgpsworld.com That site is FULL of useful links etc, it helped me download points of interest files for loads of places, plus camera locations.
Downsides: Well i'd have liked the current speed to show when navigating (it shows when its just sat there waiting to navigate), the speed camera alert overides the navigation instructions too. And thats about it. Compared to my other satnav (Garmin Streetpilot 3) its got about 95% of the functions but the new one recalculates much quicker. I'm not sure what the situation is re European maps either.
But then what do you expect for £160?
