Phone with GPS/Sat Nav

karendb

I'm a very light user and would probably stick with PAYG. However, I would like a phone with GPS capability on it. Can you recommend one - sub £100 - or a website where I can do a comparison?

Thanks - Karen

one that you can use as a car GPS?

an offline maps solution would be best, and the nokia 5230 has full car and pedestrian voice navigation, the maps are stored on the device so you do not require any data service to use them, and the maps are free to download and load using the nokia ovi suite, of which all main countries are coverd along with lots of not so main countries.

i was looking at the 5230 for this feature, but after a little more checking, i think i prefer the nokia 5800 which has wi-fi & a few more features. both phones get very good reviews & nokia's ovi maps comes out well too.

I had one and the maps navigation was ok size of the screen is a bit small but i tested using voice navigation as i dont get lost .
Fair few paid for GPS programs available for 5800 as well .
