+ Easy, quick and convenient to use. Pocket size means it can be removed for security and taken with you when you leave vehicle. Once you become fmiliar with it, as with most elecetronic devices, you become dependant upon it. Is this a good or bad point? I don't know!

- Battery life can be short (especially in cold conditions?)but if in vehicle it can be plugged in to 12v socket. Remeber it's a sat nav not an autopiolt. You still need to know how to drive and read the road and conditions!

+ Very easy to use. When it finds addresses it is very accurate at taking you to your exact destination. When it works well, it is fantastic.

- No carrying case. No at home charger (I didn't think I would need this as it has a 2 hour battery life but the charge disappears quite quickly if it's not used so a home charger would have been really useful). One occasion that I really needed it, it refused to turn on for about 24 hours. I have not been able to find several addresses (UK and Italy) and many of the Italian streets were named differently on the TomTom compared to the road name on the street. Some of the points of interest in Europe are not very good - it told me that the nearest cash point in Rome was in Dover, UK. It has taken me down 2 one way streets the wrong way and one road that became progressively worse and worse until we were forced to turn back (and I've only used it about 15 times so far).

Graham, Essex (Thurrock)

+ Compact and accurate both in UK and Europe.
Very good user interface.
The free speed camera and traffic trial was a nice touch but you need to subscribe after four weeks.
Value for money was excellent considering the functionality offered, including full UK Post Code search.
Overall I would buy it again but the PC interfacing issue was and lack of helpdesk number was VERY irritating.

- Software did not load on my computer (still does not); I had to use my sons PC to update. No helpline number in the UK or detailed manual. Has only a limited connectivity to mobile phones limiting functionality.
Not case as standard or protective cover for venerable touch screen, therefore not sure how long it will last!
No mains charger as standard but will charge off a USB plug
