Thumb Up

Having to travel in Brum, with the A38 flyovers and tunnels, this could be a god send. The wife will love it!

Tele-Atlas maps?

Don't expect to use it for a holiday in the Channel Islands or on the Isle of Man.

Mobile version?

I'm shopping for some GPS software for my Athena. Was thinking TomTom, but if I can get a mobile version of this...

look kids, Big Ben ...

Happy

Is it a coincidence that all the British POIs are those mentioned in Griswold's National Lampoons European Vacation (starring Chevy Chase, Beverly d'Angelo etc)? Big Ben, Houses of Parliament, Stonehenge ...

Must-have

The only must-have feature I've seen in a GPS is the ability to create and download custom voice command patterns.

"Mr. T pity the foo' who don't turn left in 300 yards!"

"Hmm, in 300 yards, left turn you must make!"

A friend's GPS has this and it's fantastic. The only problem is that you find yourself busting a gut every time you're about to make a turn, because somehow Mr. T or Yoda bellowing / graveling the directions is always a surprise.
