newbie to gps/sat nav. - general info wanted
Discussion
I am a newbie and I want to get a GPS system. Its all a bit confusing out there with all the types on offer. Are there any sites that you recommend I should read up first for background info.
I live in Hong Kong, but am travelling to the UK in June for a month. I have lots of uni. friends who are dotted around the country, so will get a hire car. I can probably buy a unit for the price of hiring one from avis/hertz etc. Then I can use it in HK afterwards.
The software - are they useable on most of the car and PDA systems? Which software is best for UK?
What features are worth paying for ? eg - best gps receiver chip? (HK has lots of high rise buildings where reception may be affected)
Will hard disc based systems offer better speed than SD card?
