GPS buyer's guide
Prices for GPS devices and apps have come down in the last year and many of us are looking at jumping on the bandwagon. We take a look at how it works, why you should (or shouldn't) buy a GPS, as well as key features to look out for.
Navigon 4350 max
It looks good, priced right and has an excellent Bluetooth hands-free set-up, but a host of minor niggles prevents the 4350 max from being a star.

Navman MY50T
Step up to the MY50T and you'll get a larger than normal 4.7-inch touchscreen, traffic messaging with a lifetime Suna subscription, and Google or TrueLocal searches via a Bluetooth internet connection.

Kogan EziNav G3
Want more for less? Kogan's EziNav G3 delivers with more crashes, more stuttering speech, more disappearing streets and more unusable features.

TomTom One 140
Same, same but slightly better than before. Quicker responses and lane guidance justify slight premium over fourth-gen One.

Lexus IS250 Sports Luxury (2009)
What the IS250 lacks in badge snobbery, it makes up for in good looks, rock-solid quality, neat handling and serenity enough to becalm a frazzled monk. While stuffed with tech, it isn't quite as up-to-date as we'd have liked.
-
Mio Moov 370
Traffic messaging and Bluetooth hands-free at a reasonable price, but the windshield mount and hard-to-read traffic alerts mean that it fails to scale the heights of its predecessor.

HP iPAQ 312 Travel Companion
It may not be entirely rational buying a GPS for its beautiful screen and multimedia features, but the 312 almost makes the case despite its numerous bugs and flaws.
-
Nokia N810 Internet Tablet
Its excellent, sleek design doesn't cover for its sluggish performance.
