    I've got a PDA with GPS built in. Its an ASUS A636 and I bought it exactly for this purpose. I am running TomTom Navigator 6. Don't have a picture... I would go take one but I am too lazy and its bed time

    I need a GPS navigator because my sense of direction is about as good as it was when I was STILL IN MY MOTHERS WOMB lol...

    It just sits on my windscreen in its little windscreen mount... it cost $512 or something like it... bargain price I thought!! especially considering its a PDA with wireless LAN, bluetooth, gps, infra-red and an Intel XScale 416MHz cpu...

    Got it from gamedude if anyone wants to know

    Don't need one for Melbourne as I know most of the city and suburbs pretty well by now but have one to throw into the hire cars I use, works out a lot cheaper to get a base model exec Commodore hire car than one fitted with Sat Nav..
    If ignorance is bliss why aren't there more happy people around ?

    I have a Navman ICN520 too. Excellent choice of GPS. Expensive but works very well.

    I feel like I am still at home with my Navigator.... a nagging voice telling me where to go or where I have gone wrong.

    lol my partner Rebecca hates being told what to do by a computer. She'll only take directions from the GPS if they are relayed through me.
