any body know of any stores that still have stock around the manchester area

I have to say that when we bought our Garmin i3 it was £200 and worth every penny. Now its only £100 its a steal. I'd definately recommend it.

Are these as good as the Tom Tom One?

no but its a lot cheaper,if you can stretch to a tom tom i would recommend it(or a pda based system) but if your on a tight budget the garmin is very good value.

Hey all,

I have just purchased the tomtom 300 sat nav. My questions are:

Do i need to purchase anything extra or is everything i need included in the pack?

My car has heated front windscreen, is this a problem for the sat nav?

I want to use the system immediately is this possible, or is there anything i need to set up?

Anyone know any sites i can download new voices or screensavers?

Ta all!!!

Anyone looking to get a Satnav should take a look at the garmin C510D(deluxe, not the plain C510) for £300 from Halfords. In addition to the usual features it also comes with full european mapping on a DVD and the very useful addition of a free traffic information service(RDS-TMC) which can re-route you to avoid delays.
For information, the equivilent TomTom unit would be the GO710 at £400, on top of that price you would need to pay £40 a year for the traffic service plus the cost of data calls from your mobile, or wait for the tomtom traffic module to come out in the next few months at an unknown cost(maybe £100??).
