I am tempted to buy a GPS, but would want to be able to use it in the car, and the GPS units like the SP3 are just another single-function bit of kit to carry around.
I came across the Kane Car and Bike Pilot for a PDA. see http://www.kanegear.com/carpilot.php for more details.
Has anyone tried the Kane package?
It's expensive at £749 plus the PDA but look what you get!
• Satellite navigation system with top software (they claim), GPS receiver and complete specification
• Speed trap and Congestion Zone warnings: visual and audible alerts. Guards against Gatso, Truvelo, SPECS and frequent mobile traps !!!!
• no need to use a PC for set up or map loading! Comes complete with a high spec. 256mb SD card, ready loaded with GB street level maps and major roads of Europe
• Portable from car to car to bike with removable quality car mount kit. Thanks to our software and Bluetooth GPS, you can even carry on receiving full navigation directions even when walking! Comes with conversion pack so you can use in-car and on-bike: converst in seconds, ideal for people with cars as well as bikes
• High quality maps, now with switchable 2d (aerial) or 3d (driver's eye perspective) views, with superior route creation
• Navtech geodata: Kane uses the full "navigable attribute set", just like systems in Lexus, Jaguar, BMW, Mercedes.
• Extensive points of interest with almost 40 categories including restaurants, petrol stations, parking, hotels, hospitals etc.
• Multi-mode address entry system (e.g. by post code)
• Recorded journey video option, Expected time of arrival, Auto re-routing, Night/Day mode, Pedestrian mode
• Handsfree Email-ready(via plug in of Kane Car Office pack - optional)
• Multi-media-ready (via plug-in of forthcoming optional Kane Vision Station - play back favourite recorded movies & programs).
• Leather case with belt-clip for your Bluetooth GPS when not in use.
• In-car and international mains charger kit.
PDA not included
