It appears Halfords have a sat nav sale on. Are any of these any good?

Halfords 50% off selected Garmin Sat Nav & Half Price Sendai Sat Nav...

My partner has the app on her iphone 3, but when you charge it in the car you lose the sound - damned if we can find the setting to change that!!

Got my new sat nav from my local Halfords - have to be honest although the place is filled with "kids" they do know their stuff.

Id take a wonder in to Halfords and let them help you choose, you can then get a model and make you like and then check out the price on a comparison site like www.kellkoo.co.uk - although if it is 50% off currently i dont think you will get anything cheaper

I am glad I registered on this Forum... i know nothing about Sat Navs and didnt think of going to Halfords and getting a Techy there to show me how to use it too.... maybe I will let them loose on my new blackberry!! LOL

Yes, I'm still trying to get to grips with my smartphone. I would like an app that tells me where it is warmest and sunniest within a 60 mile radius of my house, and says "This is where you should go on Saturday".
