Portable Satellite Navigation
I'm putting up my Garmin portable satellite navigation up for sale, as my current car has an inbuilt system. The system I have is 3 yrs old, and so might not be able to compete with modern devices, however when I bought it, it was an affordable way to have Satellite Navigation especially if you needed to use it in more than one car.
I did a review of the unit for the Lexus Owners Club, and it can be found here.
The recent introduction of more stylish units like the Tom Tom has almost meant that portable satellite navigation units are almost becoming a fashion accessory on the same lines as the latest mobile phone, MP3 player.
