Can anyone tell me the difference between the Road angel navigator and the Road angel navigator 7000 ?
Iv'e been reading up on both of them, and both seem the same but the 7000 has more features but the normal one is more expensive?
Or is there a better option than road angel? Anyone here got one?
Thanks for any help.

Road angel navigator is crap.
They are very hard to use and always crash, very slow to allow you to type data in.
They also only have fixed cameras on them anyway with a subscription of just under £48 a year to be able update the locations of the cameras.
Are you looking for european or just UK mapping?

TomTom One GB in that case, can get it from Halfords at the moment for £199.99.
Its very easy to use, its all intuitive and simple.
The best bit is you can download cameras from TomTom for just under £28 (for a years subscription) and update them as often as you like via your computer.
I have one and it is a great buy.
ps. I work at Halfords, but that is seriously the best price you will get it for, Tesco have it for £199.97 but Halfords are much easier to deal with if you have problems with it.
Of the ones we have on display, the TomTom models are the easiest to use, and the One GB is almost the cheapest too!
Hope I helped mate.

road angel navigator,
erm steer clear, as above, slow, "frustrating" and inacurate
tom tom 1 gb is fine for uk and as above you have the option of downloading the camera location
alternativly get the garim c510d comes with the camera location and a traffic reciver all in and is spot on piece of kit and uses better mapping than tom tom
