I have tomtom go and think its an excellent bit of kit.  The model I have has now been replaced with the Go 300, Go 500 and Go 700.

I have used to get to all the small places, using postcode searches and so far have had no problems.

I would highly recommend it.

Ipaq 2210, Tomtom3 (soon to be 5) POI speedcam database, postcode finder and bluetooth GPS. It also doubles as a PDA for work, I can slip it into my shirt pocket and I wouldn't be without it.

 

The Medion one seems reasonably good value, but it only has a 266mhz processor so if the maps are quite detailed it may not be too smooth when scrolling along. A couple of my work colleagues have various different Sat Nav's and I personally still think TT takes some beating

hi

i have the ipaq 2210 and use tomtom3 , but with an emtac bluetooth gps (i dont like tomtoms gps, emtac rocks). i would recommend going the pda route instead of Go , as theres so much more you can use the PDA for. Keeps my kids occupied for a few hours with games, mp3's etc , also my OH watches corrie and emmerdale on it......oh and 24 . The 2210's a bit old now (i would'nt mind one of the newer VGA pda's) but still think its one of the best pda's for the money. If you do decide on a 2210 make sure you store the map data on a compact flash card , as theres a problem with the SDIO drivers with bluetooth.
