My mate's Road Angel is great for cameras and also identifying mobile radar vans and laser copper guns.

My Navman kicks its arse for directions though and can even navigate me on forest tracks.

Garmin 200 nuvi excellent for cameras. small smart touch screen with online update. available cheap from amazon.co.uk or halfords.

Beware if you buying new as there a lot of new models coming onto the market now with new features, no wonder Halfords are giving 50% off their old stock.

Go the the manufactures webb site of the of the kit you fancy to see ithe new models.

I have had a Navman for two years it's a bit out of date now on some roads ,I can update but have to buy a new SD card, Tom Tom updates via the web but you have to pay after a year.

My tip is get the biggest screen you can, mine is 3 1/2 inches and I can only just see the small detail.

My next satnav will be a Navman (unless i win the Loto that is) to much stuff on a Tom Tom that I wouldn't use but would have to pay for Bluetooth that means that you have to fit the satnav every time your in the car, I think the BT ear piece is better.

I had the Tom Tom XL wide screen and found it excellent for when I had to go into London, had it nicked and replaced it with a Garmin, I've found the Garmin not quite as good in London, poor bitching betty seems to get confused, I bought it as it is preloaded with European maps that I'll need next year.

As a matter of interest I used my TomTom last year for my trip down through Morocco and across the sahara, with its lat and long facility and a set of aviation maps had absolutely no problems navigating.
