I have a PDA running tomtom5, not the latest, but have worldwide maps for it - got me out of a ghetto in Atlanta when I took a wrong turn

I would recommend TomTom...

I have it on the PDA (HP 5555) and my N80 mobile using bluetooth GPS. Never get lost The only draw back is you have keep charging it.

I have an iPaq with TomTom 5 on it. It is absolutely useless here in Northern Ireland though. The maps are a joke.

I've found the Garmin Nuvi 310 far far better. Maps are excellent. And the Bluetooth function means you can use it as a handsfree carkit at the same time. Pleasure to use.

I would recommend an A-Z.

Never yet seen a sat nav that isn't wrong at some point.

Get your self a cheap PDA, then tom tom is widely available to download.

You will also need a GPS receiver to go with it.

I use my O2 XDA IIs PDA.
