At the risk of a torrent of abuse, can anyone help with teh doffernces between the Zumo 550 and what appears to be the highly revered 2610 ?
I am loking at getting myself a sat nav for teh 1200GS , and am familiar with Garmin products on my boat.
It seems the 2610 is a very sensible choice in terms of the current prices, so what does the Zumo have over above the 2610?
I currently have no interest in mp3/ipod connectivity, and to be honest can see little point in hooking up a mobile phone so that callers can hear a blast of turbulence ( may stop working phoning me out of hours though ).
I do think being able to get up to date traffic and weather information would be handy, do the XM NavTraffic, XM Weather FM TMC Traffic features actually work here in the UK on the Zumo? Are they any good ?
Is the information displayed on screen or is it audio only ? Do tehse features work on the 2610 ?
As you can probably tell, vehicle based sat nav is fairly new to me, any advice will be appreciated.
