I was browsing Expansis and noticed they have the Fuji Siemens N500 Sat Nav / PDA for £154.95.

Comes with Navigon 5 software and car kit etc, but as its PDA you can add TomTom or other software if you wish

Mines on order and should be here tomorrow.

Looking on pricerunner the price varies between £236.98 to £322.28

Looks like an excellent PDA and GPS in one and a very good price

Having ordered this I am not too sure it comes with the car kit. The enlarged picture shows it but it is not mentioned in 'What's in the box'. I hope it does as it's not a lot of good as a GPS without it.

Ive just noticed a thread about this on the DVD Forums ...

Well, I bought two from Expansys which arrived yesterday. They do come with an in car cradle (fix to windscreen via suction pads a la Mio 168), car charger, Navigon GPS software, SD memory card (not sure what size), USB lead, software, etc, etc.

The N500 package from Expansys DOES contain the in-car cradle AND the in-car charger. Mine's just turned up, and for £150 it's a bargain!]

If it's faulty then they have no choice, Sale of goods act covers you. If the manager refused to exchange a faulty unit get his name and report it to the head office and trading standards.

If you just change your mind thats a different matter. thats down to store goodwill.
