Tom Tom One - best price in the New Year?

Seen a few posts around this subject, most seem to be deals that have ended..... anyone got any good suggestions for the best price for the Tom Tom One, only comparison I have is the DSG group who seem to like £259 with the carry case or £249 online. Help

Think I'll go for the PCWorld deal with the case - will pop in tonight and see if I can get my hands on one.

Hopefully this will help me on my football travels.......rather than merely pointing the car in the right dirction, we might actually get a proper route

If you want the 500 from currys, this might help
£25 off code min spend £250. 25OFF250_CANDG
This would make the 500 from currys £304.99 inc p&p.
You might be able to use MAC5= 5% aswell?

PS:free delivery: FREEDELJAN, just in case it,s not inc.

Only Blue tooth on the 500 and the 700, i got a case with my 500 from currys and a home charger.
Dont think you get them with the 300.

Get free Speed Camera Database and more from here h**p://www.pocketgps.co.uk/

Picked this up from PCW last night - bloody fantastic so far!

Downloaded the speed camera poi and the football ground poi so will see how I get on driving to Norwich on Saturday

Handy size and plus the case means I can stick it in my pocket or bag and navigate my way to pubs too

The 300 has bluetooth , I do not know about the processor but the chap in the shop suggested it was the better buy of the two.
