Garmin i3 or Tom Tom One

lr6so4

I have been doing lots of research into to buying satnav for my car. It will just get occaisonal use and not wanting to spend too much I am very keen on the Garmin i3 which has good reviews. However I keep hearing that the Tom Tom's are very good but how much better? Is it worth spending the extras £50-60 for a Tom Tom one or is it not worth it?

Justwatched a comparison on Fifth Gear, they reckoned the Garmin one is cheap, but too small - they recommended the Tom Tom One over it.
Iv'e used a 300 which is a similarinterfaceto the One, and it is very straighforward to use.

Ditto.

See the link for the Fifth gear review. They have a picture of it.

There is also a lot of other useful info there.
