Navigon 8410

I am using a Navigon 8410 which with very simple hacking will run SD perfectly.

Its advantages are:
  • Sunlight readable
  • 5" screen .. large enough in my view, esp if you use Tim's device.xml file to control DPI.
  • V lightweight and portable
  • Charges via USB cigarette lighter
  • Lots of cradle/holders for very easy "snap in" fixing
  • Good GPS fix (8 sats usually once initial 1/2hr fix is done)
  • Available for circa £250
  • V good car navigation as well
Cheers
