Wow - yes thanks. Trouble now is I don't where to start - guess I have to read all the specs and see why the large price difference. Is there some "major" split in features to look for? Thanks again.

It is one of those areas where you need to try a few ! I have been very pleased with a medion I got from Aldi or Lidl.
If buying another now, I would ensure it had Sirfstar3, TMC built in, and POI warner built in, the Sirfstar 3 is the latest chip for gps and is quicker , the POI warner is very useful for speed cameras etc, TMC gives real time traffic blackspot updating and re-routing.
I didn't look at the link you gave, but QVC are stupid prices,
Buy a Satnav from Costco, if you don't like it, just return it.
GPS warehouse are very good for browsing and buying from.

The s-Bray ( snipped-for-privacy@spammma.com) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :
And online?
Online prices were about the same sa the QVC price, but again without the bluetooth and photo paper. The paper alone costs £13.00 and the bluetooth is a Belkin one (approx £12.00).

You can get a 510 (UK only) from PC World (internet order) for about the same.
