I think TomTom Works out as one of the cheapest options.

If you go out and buy a GPS receiver then you need to buy some software as well then it will soon be expensive.

Also at this time you cannot buy tomtom without a gps receiver. Not sure about the other software makes though.

Back to your question though - All of the Fortuna range of GPS Receivers are very high quality. I think they actually make the receivers for TomTom. The Fortuna Clip On Receivers are very good

Have just bought CoPilot and love it

Bought seperate Pretec GPS as has a better processor in it apparently ??!?

Also had to buy bigger Mini SD card to hold European maps and a card reader.

Copilot £130

Maps upgrade £100

GPS £75 ish

512MB Mini SD £50

reader £ 17

All adds up

but works so well

My fortuna clipon was good until it decided to die for no apparent reason :) It powers on and can be bonded etc but will not work with any GPS software.

I have found that the TomTom GPS unit was actually more reliable than the fortuna one and the latest version that comes with TTM5 should be even better.

OUCH! 512 for £50! I paid £58 for my 1GB MiniSD

Ive seen TomTom Mobile 5 (GB) online for £175 with reciever but cant remember where.. Reciever alone is £115-£120
