I wanna cheap Sat Nav with Full Postcode Lookup & Touchscreen

Options
I had a PDA with tomtom running on it, however it stopped working and I thought this would be an idea time to buy a new sat nav. I ordered a navman 635 from ebay second hand, and started playing around with it and its awful, doesnt compare at all to tomtom, no postcode lookup, awful address lookup, no touchscreen, I cant see why anyone would pay £625 (expansys price) for it.

Anyway, im putting it back on ebay and want a new one. Preferably a tomtom, bet would consider anything with full postcode lookup and preferably a touch screen. It doesnt need to be battery powered as it will only be used in the car. Im looking for as cheap as possible - under £150 is possible. I'm not too fussed if its new or second hand. as long as its good condition and has all accessories.

Another thing is, I have a PSP and heard rumours of a sat nav add on for that? Anybody know how true this is, and if so when and how much can we expect to pay for it.

Thanks in advance,

Shane

    Buy a reasonable PDA, cheap GPS receiver and a hooky copy of Tom tom 6. cheapest way of getting sat nav, I got a PDA from Orange free on a contract Ive had 3 over the last 3 and a bit years on upgrades.

    Even if it is true it wouldnt be touch screeen. I know people have sat nav software running on a PSP but the connecting a GPS is gonna be fun.

    Already have a GPS receiver from my old PDA. Thinks its gonna be best to just replace the PDA. Thanks.
