road angels are a con, the laser detection goes off at either things that arent even speed traps, or when it does go off for a speed trap, most of the time the copper will have already got you.
the gps ones are a bit better but again only work for fixed speed cameras. Expensive just for that feature

No, I want speed trap detection.
Do they pick up Police cars like the one that Mitchells dad had in his G60?

they will pick up on most things using infrared, traffics lights etc included, the problem is, by the time its picked it up, the police will have had you, they can get you upto 1/2 a mile away if your in line of sight

obviously it may catch the odd one, but imo they arent worth the 350 quid or whatever asking price, there is a cheaper alternative, dont speed in areeas you know are dodgy, i do this and have never yet been caught speeding, touch wood, and ask most people who will probably say i drive like a maniac

speed camera detectors are a waste of time imo, they just dont give enough warning and they give that many false warnings that when it is a genuine one half the time you ignore it anyway.

List here right now what I need to connect my AOL wireless connection up to Xbox Live and what Xbox package I need and I will get one tonight. I don't want to have to wait for connection or any other bullshit, I want to use it tonight and be connected tonight.
