What we think: A simple sat-nav that covers the navigational basics with confidence

We like:
Big, colourful screen; good search and points of interest; clear voice
We don't like:
Weak GPS; no traffic info; can't update software
CNET.co.uk judgement:
An entry-level navigator that benefits from a superb screen, comprehensive European mapping and excellent search functions. Only exclusively urban motorists should worry about the fussy GPS reception. The cheaper nuvi 200W is also available with maps of just UK and Ireland
