    ohreally-the ads for navman seem very good -it has the portability i need,but i'm a bit concerned about only having a 5 digit postcode finder .How do you find it?how accurate is it in inner city built up areas?
    I would suggest not to be too put off by the full post-code issue as when searching the 5 digit brings up a menu which *should* let you find the address you want, even if the address turns out to not be listed you will have navigated to a very close proximity anyway.
    Navman are also offering an unlock key for ~£40 which will also give you France/Spain mapping (the maps are all supplied in the box but to install extra ones you need an unlock code to progress).
    Don’t be a can’t, be a can.
