I'm looking for a budget Sat Nav system (an oxymoron?) that's easy to use (I'm a bit of a luddite) and works well that won't cost the earth. I'm looking to spend around £150 - £200 (just wishful thinking?).

Can anyone point me in the right direction? (Boom boom)

Thanks

Dan

TomTom one is only just over £200 and by far the best!

GARMIN i3.

99 sheets from Staples. Awesome. Very cheap and very cheerful.

Bit too small in my oppinion, Half the size of the TomToms, Postcode search isn't as good either, and thats how I enter 99% of my routes!

I need a cheap unit for my girlfriend. She likes the Navman, how does the iC520 compare against the TomTom1? I know the Navman is about £50 cheaper.

Garmin I have never heard of, their models any good other than poor postcode search?
