danksy Posted March 9, 2003 Report Share Posted March 9, 2003 So boys, whats the verdict on these IPAQ based sat-nav systems? Which one should I get? Navman 3400+ Voice TomTom Navigator Or something else? Do any of you guys use one at the moment? Cheers Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Posted March 24, 2003 Report Share Posted March 24, 2003 I've just upgraded my iPaq Navman 3000 to the latest 3400 voice version and so far it rocks. Tried it this evening and it works very well. Very quick and very accurate. Very impressed so far - a lot better than the old software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danksy Posted March 25, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 Decisions decisions! The cheapest I've seen the Navman 3400St is atGPSW It's still quite expensive though IMHO. Daz-Any chance of a demo at Gti? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mo-S3 Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 Which is the best PDA to get ?? the compaq ?? or the sony ?? if so which one?? Im thinking of the compaq 3970 but what realistic price should i be looking to pay ?? currently seen it for £420. Any good cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danksy Posted March 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 To be honest I love my ipaq 3970, and you can get them for £399 from carphone warehouse. The online price for currys also is £399 + P&P. People swear by Sony's and Palms, to be honest I like the IPAQ mainly because it is the model that Unilever GIO supports. The downside is that it is a little bulky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
