use a tomtom 500/510 (or something?) and it hasn't steered me wrong yet*. it came with a memory card that said "great britain" on it, so i assume you either need a package with "europe" on or the country you'll be travelling to i don't know the ins and outs of them i'm afraid.

*it always gets you there, but not always the fastest route, but sometimes the more scenic route

i think its a ase of buying it from the tomtom website and downloading it, then putting it on the tomtom itself. cracks are available but are a complete pain apparently. my boss did it originally on his PDA, don't know whether you'd get away with a crack on an actual tomtom unit.

although on further inspection the map for france is 60 euros

according to the site, the 510 comes with the major roads of Europe on the memory card, the 710 comes with all the roads of Europe, the 910 comes with Europe, the US and Canada
