Navman MY500XT

Improved, but still deeply flawed. We'd suggest checking out the lesser fruit from the Navman tree first.

Mio A430

It may be a frill-free zone, but the Mio A430 offers plenty of screen girth for the money. Pity then that the camera and school zone warnings are nigh on useless.

Reviews

  • Mio A430

    It may be a frill-free zone, but the Mio A430 offers plenty of screen girth for the money. Pity then that the camera and school zone warnings are nigh on useless.

  • Mio A470

    As its name suggests, the A470 has a 4.7-inch touchscreen. It also gains Bluetooth hands-free, lane guidance, 3D landmarks and text-to-speech.

  • Mio A350

    At AU$199, the Mio A350 is the cheapest brand name GPS around. While it has a 3.5-inch touchscreen, and school and safety camera warnings, you can forget about text-to-speech, Bluetooth, lane guidance and the like.

  • Navman MY55T

    Just like the 4.7-inch MY50T, but with added goodness in the form of Bluetooth hands-free, more memory, an FM transmitter, 3D landmarks and a higher capacity battery.

  • Garmin Nuvi 265WT

    With its relatively elegant traffic antenna and simple-to-use interface, the Garmin Nuvi 265WT makes a good case for itself.

  • Garmin Nuvi 265T

    As its name suggests, the 265T adds all the necessary traffic messaging doo-dads to the 3.5-inch Garmin Nuvi 265.

  • TomTom XL Traffic (2nd generation)

    Compact, correctable, good looking and easy to use, the TomTom XL is a great portable GPS. For AU$100 more there's this Traffic version with, uhh, traffic messaging built-in.

  • TomTom Go 930 Traffic

    TomTom's top shelf Go 930 features an FM transmitter, traffic messaging, user correctable maps, text-to-speech, Bluetooth and a 4.3-inch screen, but its killer feature is that it comes pre-loaded with maps from 45 countries.

    In the good old days we'd let our fingers do the walking when using the Yellow Pages. These days our fingers do a lot more with our mobile phones.

  • GPS traffic messaging FAQ

    Traffic messaging for sat nav devices is now available for residents along Australia's eastern seaboard. But what is it? What does it do? Which devices have it? And is it any good?

  • Traffic-enabled GPS navigators

    With traffic services now available along the eastern seaboard, traffic-enabled GPS devices are now blooming like flowers in the spring sun. We pick three quality units with traffic messaging bundled.
