I agree - what is the the Garmin's favour though is that its very easy to use, small - therefore easy to position and does exactly what it says on the box - even my wife is warming to it - can't see her touching the pda.

In truth they are both very good bits of kit in their own right - I just wish I didn't have to decide which one to keep - has anyone else got both?

Can't get hold of the garmin one anywhere in west yorkshire area.... unless anybody knows something i don't???????? if so HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the PDA is a lot more portable ie nice fit in a shirt pocket.
Keep your Garmin in your trouser pocket and you might get a lot of attention.

I told you a couple of days ago.
Sorry I thought you knew were Kwiksave , Aspley was.
It is on Wakefield road Huddersfield. They did have around 7 Garmins and two Micromaxx . Apologies hope they still have some, the pda's were marked at £179 but scan at £129, the Garmins also higher price but scan at £99

Yes the PDA is alot smaller than the Garmin to carry round and the Sat Nav is very simple to use just turn the PDA on and click on the icon and away it goes, also having a touch screen is easier to use if you need to change route while driving rather than using a scroll wheel, if you get stuck in a traffic jam you could also play a few games

Whatever you do im sure it will be the right choice and it has to be up to you

So pleased! Just managed to buy one of each - Garmin & PDA! The Garmin will be a present for my brother in law's 50th birthday next week - the PDA will be for me!

Bought them in St Annes' Kwik Save at 8:00 am today.

Thanks but it's an 80 mile round trip so I wouldn't be able to get there before the weekend by which time I'm sure they'll be long gone - bah!
