    Do you have absolutely no sense of direction! :p

    And presumably you don't have them all in use at the same time?

    Can you fit these to a bike??

    I've tried and not very satisfactory - going to try and sell on Ebay I think. Got it for £100 from sommerfield - have speed cameras downloaded - should at least recoup my money I hope.

    Two main problems - sound: no headphone socket so need to use sight only
    batteries - they really don't last I did an hour riding with brand new duracell batteries and they were dead.

    Good feature that I hadn't thought through though was showing the contour of the roads, I know it may be obvious, but I was using it for directions only, but when you zoom in you can see how sharp bends are, so after a little getting used to I was loving the fact I didn't need to slow for a blind bend - cos you know it isn't sharp etc.

    Finally they aren't designed for bikes - so I bottled the attatching to windshield and went for siting it in the top of a tank bag - ok but not great.

    Incidentally I don't know if folks are aware just how good the homebase reward card is. I took one out last year when I was buying quite a bit of stuff - when I got my statement they were paying 10% back. Ie buy the sat nav today - get it for £90 plus get a further £9 cashback in due course.

    Hi all,

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to say? but after much deliberation I decided to buy a Navman 320 today, the cheapest (by foot not via the internet) was The Link at £163.99, but it's been reduced now to £149, so I thought I'd let you guys know :beer:

    I think that's about the average price on the net..around £150.Check out Amazon for instance.There was a thread here last week saying the 320 was on offer at Homebase for £99:)

    I checked out Homebase but there was none in my local, I had gone to Halfords (blinkin expensive in shop), Comet, The Link, Argos & Toys R Us. I don't have a credit card so I am limited with shopping online where I'm sure there are more bargains available!

  • Halfords are doing the NAVMAN ICN 520 for £199, cheapest around, normally retails around £260 :j

    I went to my High street today and went to The Link Mobile Shop, i saw Navman 520 is going for £149.99 which is £100 less than normal price, thought that would be a bargain buy whoever looking to get a Satelite Navigation system for your Car, and that's an All in one system too!

    Are you sure it's the 520 & not the superceded 510?
