      I won't. I have a built-in Mercedes satnav, 5 years old but with up to date CD's. It has no flashy graphics or colourful screens, no choice of silly voices, no greasy touchscreen and is possibly the most reliable application I have used in 15 years in ICT. Simple, spartan, no-frills and it works.

        And that, Ladies and Gentleman, was the last post we ever had on CUK from Mich the Tester. Nobody knows what ever came of him.

            I don't want it free; I want to buy it, full price, no discounts, then I can deduct it from tax and deny the scavenging tax bastards another hundred euros or so. Business in NL is all about making enough turnover to live a life of luxury while not making enough profit to pay 52% tax.

                CoPilot on my HTC Touch Pro 2 is all I need. Got the whole of Europe on a Micro SD card.

                Took it to Mallorca and navigated the roads perfectly.

                  copilot is awful. Compared to TT it sucks big time. I don't know how many times I've ended up in the wrong place with that peice of software.

                    I'll keep that in mind when I move over there (hopefully) next year.
