After reading so many reviews of the TomTom and Garmin's I settled for the manufacturer associated with GPS since its inception and I have been thoroughly delighted with it up to now. I tried a colleague's widescreen TomTom but I found it too bulky and the general map display showed far too much detail, with irrelevant information dotted around the screen. Do you constantly need reminding of when you set off, or signal strength (surely if the map is moving when you are it is obvious there is a signal present).

It seems that every conceivable need and convenience has been well thought out on this Garmin unit. For example, the screen automatically changes the background colour of the map from white when it's daytime and ambient light ... Read More:

Garmin eTrex H Handheld GPS Navigator
I bought one of the original eTrex devices about five years ago but the current model (eTrex H)is a completely different animal. The appearance is identical to the original, but that is where the similarities end.

Garmin have done a great job of removing all the problems with the original eTrex. It's now very responsive and usually takes less than a minute to find satellites from when you press the power switch. Accuracy is usually well within 10 metres even in normal mode (ie without WAAS). The signal is retained under tree canopies though I have not yet tested it in deep forests. Battery life is fine for a day on the hills though the claimed 17 hours seems optimistic. I plan to switch to ... Read More:

Garmin Forerunner 205 - GA52I have had mine for a week and have found it is fantastic. I have run 5 marathons, countless half-marathons and now, at the age of 78, I walk some 130 miles a month. How I wish I had had this when training for my marathons. Read the blurb and you will see only a small proportion of what it can do. Three screens, each of which can have a variable number of panels. The display is really clear, even to my aging eyes. My only complaint is that the manual could be clearer and fuller. But if you are computer literate, there should not be any difficulty.

Garmin Nuvi 200 Widescreen Satellite Navigation System With UK & Ireland Mapping - £100.29.

Really worth it to buy,easy to go any where,user friendly,Good map routing with SPF(Shortest path First),2D-3D touch screen

My first impressions were very positive. It looks very simple, and is easy to use. I was happy to see that you could change the mapping options, from the perspective view, to a view from above, where the map moves under the car, and another view from above where the car moves on the map (which is aligned north), which is my own setting.

Second to this the voice commands are clear, and the display is excellent, even in extremely bright weather. The night mode inverts the map, so that it doesn't glare, and this ... Read More:

Used to have a basic polar HRM watch for running until strap broke. Been looking forward to Forerunner 405 but not impressed by reviews so jumped at this "deal of the week" offer! Managed to buy watch and heart rate monitor + footpod strap for ~£65.

1. Looks good as a normal watch
2. Straightforward to link up all three items (read manual)
3. Software download no probs, and uploading workout info automatic
4. Footpod secure on shoe - if you want to measure distance/speed or pace, then the footpod works a treat. Dont need expensive GPS model.
5. watch has all necessary functions - laps, interval timer, even tells the time!
6. so far so good - all items have replaceable battery

Love it! Ordered end of last week and it arrived on Saturday morning with free delivery option (and Royal Mail must have been on rare top form too).

This is a great item, its far superior to the windscreen mount, which although fairly good, does tend to drop off occasionally and scare the heck out of me - especially if you're doing motorway speeds at the time.

The beanbag is heavy and solidly made and the underside has a sort-of neoprene wetsuit kind of feel to it, which is what makes it stick like glue to the dashboard I guess. No problems testing it already - my other half thinks he's Petter Solberg sometimes...

But.... come on Amazon - could you have made it any more difficult to find this item? Surely giving it a name like 'Garmin Nuvi ... Read More:

Easy to use and a great aid to running. Signal is brilliant where I am but can imagine it could disappear in dense wood or town area. But then take the warnings in the reviews and move up a model or two to improve this minor problem. Enjoy!

I have now had the machine for 2 months and have done over 5,000 miles with it around the UK (Blackpool, Preston, Telford, Waterlooville, Portsmouth and London) so it's navigation and traffic systems are well tested.

The screen is clear in most conditions and even automatically zooms in as you reach a turn although I have noticed that with sun behind your shoulder the screen washes out, but this is where the voice commands, giving street names comes in usefull so while this can be anoying on a winter morning, it is not a major issue.

Features such as Bluetooth, MP3 player etc are good, since buying the 760 it is the first time I have ever considered leaving my phone on in the car. One point to make is the manual doesn't tell you the bigest SD Card it will take is 4GB, although ... Read More:

Electronics : Garmin - Case for GPS
No doubt this is worth getting, it fits perfectly around the unit, and as stated in the above comment, it gives the unit that added line of defence in case of a fall. I also agree with other comments that the clip and the extra D ring on the back are a little redundant, with the lanyard fitted and threaded through its all you need and would make the whole thing look less bulky.

My word of warning... I bought mine from 'photoland_uk' and it is clearly NOT authentic. The 'Garmin' is written in completely the wrong typeface and the embossed globe logo is missing altogether. I'm not saying its of inferior quality... its just not the genuine article.
