i fancy getting a gps sat nav jobby but i would rather have a pda that i can mount on my dash and use as a sat nav thing when in my car and then take the pda to work with me as well, rather than just haveing a electronic road map
does anyone know which pda systems are good quality and are available in a package along with the gps equipment and software
im a total newbie to these things so keep it simple

TomTom is the best, get it from places like http://www.totalgps.co.uk then buy our postcode finder for it from http://www.poisoft.co.uk
